A short box with ps/pb/AC etc. question is --are all power windows very slow? If so, is there
Another motor that is faster than that can be adapted or can the orig be reworked to be
Faster? Thanks . Jerry

no. but worn motors, poor conections or tracks that need lube will slow down the motor. also welcome from maryland

Mine go up and down like brand new, but then again, they are brand new. 8)

+1 with the others. When I have had a truck with slow power windows, replacing the motor and the window regulator has always solved the problem. It's a little more pricey to do both motor and regulator at once, but they are +/- 30 years old, so replacing both the motor and regulator at once makes sense. If you do either the motor or the regulator and don't solve the problem, you have to do ALL the work again to replace the part you already had removed from the door shell previously, but didn't replace.

When I bought my Suburban, the driver's door motor didn't work. I replaced it and it's much faster than all the other windows. The rear passenger window is terribly slow and I don't even try to move it if the engine isn't running. It would take most of the rest of my life for it to go up or down. ;D
