Does anyone have the Dorman part number for the power window lift plugs for a 1988 Chrysler 5th Ave. My drivers side front window drops about a 1/2" when I drive. It goes back up with the switch but will drop again. How difficult are they to put in ?

What plug are you talking about?
Seems to me the motor or the regulator are getting weak or possibly both.

Don't the teeth wear out too?

Yup, the teeth on the regulator can wear out, allowing some slop.
Personally, to me, this sounds like the motor is worn, allowing the window to drop.
I never replace one without replacing the other.

There are 3, half inch diameter solid nylon plugs in the regulator assembly that act as the clutch in moving the window up or down. Amazon product ASIN B000CO96SG Apparently when they get old they get hard and slip. The info is on another thread here but there is no part number for them. I have no experience doing this I only have been reading about it.

Dorman Help 1330823, and 74410 can be modified to work, but usually the gear will crack a short time later. Dorman 747-411 is a complete gear replacement with the plugs, or ACI 87433 come with gearbox seal and the correct grease.
Personally I just order the gear kit.

I appreciate the info. It looks like for the price, I will replace the gear.
