I got it there but it was with a lot of 2 hand persuasion. I know if I hook up the window regulator it won't be able to move the glass up or down. Any ideas as to how to remedy this?
Thanks for any ideas or procedures to fix this problem. I only did one door and want to figure this one out before I do the other door.

I took a piece of 1/4" round stock and chopped off a piece about 4" long and then took another piece and welded it together to make a "T" handle and I then gently knocked it into the channel to help open it up, that worked pretty good but still tight in one spot, and I then took a "C" clamp and pulled the one slide bar over toward the door jamb and that fixed it . Slides up and down great now.
