I have the same problem, either up or down. Cant tell you how many handles I have broken closing the door :twisted: . To make maters worse I have a speaker right there so I have to use the chrome winders that will clear the speaker. This is what I use:



later,Mitch.

Hi Mitch

Thank you for the information.

glad to hear I'm not the only one with the window winder problem.

my friend told me someone has produced shorther billet
window cranks in 90's.

all I need is 1-1.5" to avoid hitting the roll bar.

I use same window crank & yes broke another one over the weekend
off road trip. driving me crazy now.

I also had that problem with the billit cranks i have until i took off the knob part of the crank and just left the handle part, now it clears the roll cage by about half an inch. just a thought.
