Ok when I roll (meaning I push the make the window go up switch) the front windows up there is a clicking noise as the they go up. Probably abour 4-6 clicks on the way up.

Is this a noise that is in all 97+ or just mine?

I had that same kind of clicking start a couple days before the window regulator broke.

Mine have been doing it for about a year now. Where there any other symptoms of the regulator failing? They go up and down just fine with no hesitations or slipping.

I would guess that changing the regulator is pretty easy, other than having to take the door panels off. Is that true?

From what I can tell it would be fairly easy to replace. I really wouldn't know though. My 99 was hit in the front before I was able to replace the regulator so I had the body shop replace it while it was there.

I am not overly concerned about it. Guess it would be a good time to put in better door speakers!

My front windows were dragging, jerking upward a little and very slow.

I sprayed WD40 in the channel on the b-post of the door where the back of the glass slides and they are smmmooooth and quick now.
