79 Bronco Driverside Window adjustment

On the driverside window of my 79 Bronco when I roll it down the back goes down faster than the front. How do I adjust it to make it roll down evenly in the front and back? The division glass run weatherstriping is gone(weatherstriping in the front of the door). Would this throw it off?

I also have another question. My bronco has the security lock on the hood where you have to first pop it open from inside the cab. The cable is broken and I have to pull it from the outside. How do I do away with this so I only have the one hood latch?

You could find a non cable latch in the junk yard or an aftermarket one. I have a latch like you have and I got rid of the cable so now to open the hood I just use my finger and push down on the little release that the cable was attached to and then use the main latch. As for the window it seems like with no weatherstrip in between the vent window and main window there shouldnt be a problem. I'd take the door panel off and see if the crank roller is snug in the window track. If its not that might be the roblem
