Can anyone tell me what the sequence of washers and spring are on the pivot stem of a vent window on a 1953 pickup. I took mine apart and the sequence does not seem to be right. A photo would help.

Thanks Stan

the bottom flat washer next to the nut is a regular washer with a round hole. the two fiber washers act as brakes to hold the window open at speed. you adjust that by tightening the nut

I used the tech tip on mine when I did it several years ago. It was excellent, pics included.
