There should be a clip on the back of the crank that needs to be taken off. Use a rag or something you can get behind it and work off that way. watch it cause the clip might go sailing. good luck

The window crank clip will probably come out without breaking, but some of the little clips that hold the interior door panel on will almost certainly break. At least they do for me. You can find replacements for those at car parts places and, sometimes, even at places like Lowe's.

that clanking is prolly the handle...the splining inside is prolly stripped. if it is, it happened from the window it self not sliding propperly...pull the door apart and use some silicone oil on the window track and all of the cables inside. also....the weather striping on the inside of the window might be "pinching" the window and making it tought to roll up, that happened to my passenger side door. good luck and i hope this helped

Well I did it this way and it worked fine, so there  :P

LOL

after I got mine up I hooked it with a seal pick and
pulled it the rest of the way out, they fly so watch it.
