Help me out please!!

I just bought new inside support assemblies for my windows (rubber on outside,fussy on inside.. window comes up through it).. and was wondering if anyone knew how to put them on properly.. im assuming the door has to come off.. Does anyone know how to do this?? Also the doors are drooping a little and making it heavy to close .. I've read changing the pins and hinges will fix that right up.. I just can't remmeber how much they cost.. anyone??

I haven't replaced mine yet, but the door panels do have to come off I believe. There's about 4 nuts holding the strip to the door.

Door doesn't have to come off, just the interior panel. Might have to pull out the window, that I'm not sure.

its a straight forward replacement with door on & window in down position and panel off. it is self explanatory once you get in there and see it. did my 82, first time installer, piece of cake.
