Default Power window kit

Anybody know where I can get installation instructions? Most of it is plug and play as far as the switch and motor goes but the other wiring I'm not sure about and I looked on YouTube but none of the videos shows the wiring setup. Any help would be appreciated.....

does any one know where I can buy a decent power window conversion kit? The one I bought wasn't long enough to mount the motor in the right spot and had no install instruction and alot of parts.

Grab a pair of doors from the same year truck that already have power windows. Transfer that stuff into your doors, then, just need to run the wiring. Wiring diagrams (service manual, section 8W) will tell you all you need to know.

I've already gotten a universal kit and this is the best way it will fit and I still dont think it will work.

Doesn't the winder (or whatever you wanna call it) slide further down on the shaft?

Can you mount the motor INSIDE the door? Think it might interfere with the door panel there.....

That's where I was trying to put it but the arm doesn't let it go that far and that's as far as the gear piece will go.

Won't mount low enough in the door to miss the rest of the linkage? Hhhmmm.... That's going to be fun to figure out. Gonna have to get creative. Think I would check the door panel, and see if that location is even going to work...... I suspect the winder feller will actually be held in place by the door panel.... the shaft is that long for a reason, after all.
