1984 camaro with the manual style window cranks. It goes up and down easy. It just when you put it up, the back part of the window is down about an inch while the front part of the window is in it's normal place. Any suggestions

Yup, take the door skin off and learn how to adjust it. There's tech articles and stuff.

You could also have a broken roller- check that your rollers on the window mechanism(there should be a total of three- the sizzor arms that lift the window have 4 ends total- one end has the gear on it in the crank mechanism, two ends go in the window track, the 4th end rides in a short length of track rear of center of the door). There is also a 4th roller attached to a stud in the window that rides in the vertical track just to the rear of the armrest area. That one is the usual mystery rattle that is the last one you seem to find when sorting out all the bangs and rattles in the door...
