I recently had an issue with my 74 Charger SE drivers window. A few days ago I shut the door and the window rocked back. Tearing it apart, I found that the rear attaching bolt had fallen out. I replaced that and greased things up while I was in there. However I found the following two items in the bottom of the door. The nylon bushing is about 1" long and the bolt that goes through can be taken out. I've looked through all the reference material I can find and can not locate where they go.

I'm actually hoping they are some kind of bump stop or something because the other issue is that I can roll up the window about 1/2" too high. Any information would be appreciated.

If you just found them in one door, I would look in the other door to see if you can tell where they go.
 
On my 1969 the side window has two holes: 1 where the window attahces to the regulator and 1 to the rear? There is a plug that goes in the hole to the rear that serves as an up stop.
 
I'll look in the morning at my car to see if I can be of some help .Looks to me like a way to attach the glass to the regular but I thought they had a regular 6 point bolt head not a Philips.
 
Your first thought was correct. They are bump stops to limit upward travel of the glass.

I know this is a Challenger, but it will give you an idea as you can clearly see them in this graph.

That was my first thought also but those use an expanding push pin. After a second look these are bolts with threads.
 
Thanks all for the input so far. I do have an extra hole in my window glass like themechanic mentioned above but could not figure out anything for these to screw into. I'll check in the places SCATPACK1 shows in the diagram again, but didn't see anything obvious the first time. I think I found what mopar 3 B is referring to under Mopar Dodge Plymouth Door Glass Up Stop Kit. However as he mentioned, those are not really like mine since they don't have the expanding push pin. Don't want to do it, but might have to tear other door apart like Badvert65 mentioned but they would give me a better reference to compare to SCATPACK1's diagram.
 
By tearing the other door apart, I've figured out what these are. However, need a little advise now. As more or less decided above, they are up stops. Unlike the E body, they did not have the expanding push pin. The original pictured above have the bolts going the wrong way through them. Based off the lip on the up stop, the shorter side goes into the holes in the window glass. They are then screwed into retainers on the other side of the window. These retainers are similar to the ones that hold the glass to the brackets. The bolts through the up stops are bigger than the screws that hold the glass to the brackets, so I can not use those retainers. I tried.

The issue I have is that this seems to be a 74 or maybe 73-74 only setup. The only I can find for earlier b-bodies or e-bodies have the expanding push pin type. You think these will work?
