I have a 2003 Tahoe Z71, the rear left window regulator cable broke so I replaced the entire regulator with the Dorman 748-228 with motor.
After install, the glass tips toward the back of the track when the window is rolled down.
Is this normal? Should I have replaced the regulator with AC Delco instead of Dorman?
And tips to correctly install the glass into the regulator clamps?
It's like the window won't stay in its tracks.

Seem like the clamping part of the regulator that slides on the track up and down is loose on the track. (if that makes since)
If you have a Tahoe, can you please put down your rear window and see if the window will tilt from the forward part of the window frame towards the back of the window frame and report back?
I was wondering if the Dorman regulator was just junk or defective.
