    Rear Quarter Glass - Noise/Play From Socket After Removal

    Hey ya'll.... I did my finisher window trims a while back, and in the process removed the quarter glass. I now notice a bit of play from that ball socket, which creates a clacking sound when my quarter windows are open. I've removed and reinstalled to inspect, but now it just looks like there is more play in there(ball/socket), not sure how it developed. I've double checked the quarter glass screws/bolts and everything is tight. Other side has no issues.

    Anyone have any suggestions? do you think re-adjusting the quarter glass will help?

    EDIT: SOLVED... as stated below, o-ring was missing from one side.

      Theres two small gaskets on each ball joint, yours must've slipped off, and is causing the extra play in the ball socket

        +1 ; there is a rubber o ring that goes around the ball joint. Yours is either missing or worn out.
