window binds when rolling up

hello, i have a 86 iroc with power window's. when i roll the drivers side up, it goes up great until it reaches the triangle seal on the front of the door. when it does this, the glass binds forward (front part of the glass stops while the rear wants to keep going). just wondering if anybody else has had the same problem or knows of any fixes. thanks for all your help, tom

The track in that little triangle actually extends all the way to the bottom of the door. I'm not sure this is a fix, but if its only binding when the window reaches the triangle (top part of the track) you can try adjusting the track. Remove the door panel and loosen the 10MM bolts holding the track. Pivot it and retighten. Good luck. I'm having a similar problem, but recieved no replies to my last post. Gonna try again. Seems windows are a real challenge!
