hey guys hows it going? My names Joel, i am 16 and only just really got involved in Toyota's when my folks talked me out of the old valiants i loved so much for a little four cylinder, I only joined this site today on the advice of Super Cheap Auto. I couldn't help but notice u guys r all talking about the rear window winders in the TA22's. I actually only just finished fixing the drivers side in my car yesterday so heres how i did it listen up, NB: Only remove one side at a time 1) I had to remove all the shit that covers up the bolts, IE. doors trims, back seats, seals in fact all sorts of shit u'll see when u go to do it (its just common sense after all). 2) I had to remove the winder mechanism (thats a shit of job especially when those slots on the top of the main track bolts break . 3)After you've got it all out of the inside of the panel inspect the teeth, if there all complete then use a compressed air jack hammer to tap the Stopper (little metal loopy thing) out of the end of the main track, if not well quite frankly i don't know 4)I went down to my local Mitre 10 (i work there) and went to the sliding door parts isle and found the right sized wheel for the track AND the best thing is u can buy these with a thread sticking out (prob bout 10 or 20 mm)and a nylon lock nut. 5)UNBOLT THE GLASS from the mechanism i didn't break any but there is alot of stressing involved so better to be safe then sorry 6)After the glass is unbolted u have to drill out the rivet holes from behind, i actually found it easier to drill the backs out of them and tap them out with the jack hammer but it gives a really dodgy hole so your prob best to drill it properly 7) Mount the wheels in the holes and tighten the lock nuts grease the tracks and all the other rubbing parts for that matter with the best quality grease u can find not only does it make it all last longer but i also found my window winds up much smoother 9)slide the wheels into the track but make sure u've done it the right way around IE. the stopper u tapped out to-wards the bottom of the car 10) replace the stopper, u can either tap it back with the jack hammer or as i did just put a tank bolt in the using another lock nut as the stopper (this makes it easier to remove if my system plays up in the future) 11)now the fun part! putting it all back in, basically the reverse of how you pulled it out, if u r smart u would have only removed one at a time so u can use the other side as a rough model, 12) just in case u need it heres a ROUGH guide of how it all goes back in firstly BEWARE those two sided nuts r all different, two of them have got smaller circles and shorter threads, these r for the tops of your main track, the two longer ones r for the bottom onm the main track and the one with the larger circle is for that "L" shaped track if not put into the correct holes u r most likely gunna break the glass as u put them in. The part of the mechanism that has the actual winder sticking out of it goes under the main roller track, and the little black wheel needs to be put in the tiny little track down low to-wards the back of the car and the white piece of plastic needs to be slit into the "L" shaped track. I know its all only rough but it should at least help and maybe get a few of u's out of trouble, it may not seem it but wots written there took hours of trial and error to get right so best of luck, if anyone in the Brisbane area has got this problem but couldn't be stuffed fixing it let us know and we'll see if we can't make some sorta deal My mobile numbers 0411 124 647 out of school hours cheers guys I'm off, lol still gotta do the passenger side yet.
