Window Stuck

Greetings
I rolled down my driver window on the way home from work and parked my car in the garage.
This morning the driver's window on my 41 Clipper would not roll up. It cranked up only 4 inches and then stops. I didn't want to force it with the crank handle. It has always rolled up a bit stiff in the past, but never stuck like this.

I took the window frame and upholstery off to find at the problem. I then removed the crank mechanism (30.386 Regulator assembly) and it works fine. The window glass is in place in the tracks but will not pull up over that same 4".

I didn't have time to go further into it. Suppose I will need to remove the arm and pivot assembly to pull out the glass from the door. That's for another day. Any other ideas????

Anybody with more experience out there that can keep me from getting "TOO CRANKY" over a stuck window?

I will try to upload the drawing from the Parts list book
