Default new guy with Ram Van

Well I've been on this forum for a few months now reading and what not some of things people ask and I figured i may as well sign up and learn more about my dodge. I owe my dodge alot, its been crazy reliable and everything. I drive a 1996 dodge grandcaravan. Yes a van. This aint no normal van though lol. I've had motors in the back, drive lines, T-cases, hoods, fenders, and what not. This van is pretty much my Parts getter. Ive towed a trailer with a car on it, a boat, and even wave runners with this v6 3.3L bad girl and she just keeps on going.

Well anyways.. Ive owned it for about 5 years now. I've done the normal stuff on it, oil change, fluids, etc... I've never had replace anything motor wise so thats pretty awesome. Well...

Im at the point right now that Im thinkin.... this van has done ALOT for me and friends and i want to fix it up. Like lets see here...

Both windows dont roll up or down. I think the driver side window pully system is jacked up all around AND needs a new motor. Would anyone know a good place to look for diagram and how to take apart/remove and replace this part? IT would be very helpful. I would also like to get the AC fixed. From what i know of the clutch froze on the A/C compressor. anybody got any ideas? any help, info or anything about these cars would be very awesome and helpful in some way, even if its a website with some diagrams or if anybody could tell me were to get a good book that would explain some of this stuff.... Again... anything is help full....

Thanks, Dubdub

Are you asking about a Ram Van as the title of your post suggests, or are you asking about this 96 Caravan? If it's the Caravan, then this thread was moved into the wrong forum.

Is this a 'GrandCaravan' (front wheel drive minivan) or a 'RAM VAN' (rear wheel drive 'real' Van?
