NAPA should have the tool you're looking for...pretty cheap,too....that is if it's like GM or Ford...

 

what kind of tool is it? is it somthigni might have around the house or is there somthing else i could use to get it off. i just need to kow how it is held on there. is it a clip or what? i really don;t want to go and buy a special tool jsut to get the thing off.

 

would it be possible for me to tkae off all the doors on the jeep and replace them with doors that habve elctraic door locks and windows?

 

well, if it's like most other vehicles,its a open-ended circular clip that fits into indentations on the crank post...the tool is kind of a notched-out piece of metal that slides under the handle base and pushes the clip off...you could use something similar( putty knife,i.e.) ....but what pushes the clip off is just a bit of a flange at the end of the tool...but I've used both...just be careful of the panel,you don't wanna tear it....

 

I know they make aftermarket kits. I think you can get them through JC Whitney or Quadratec...

Yeah, what he said

 

Slide a washcloth under the trim, work it back and forth, and the clip will snap loose. No other tools needed.
If you want to convert to electric, let me know. I want to convert to manual.

On my '88 2-door manual opened windows I just pulled the crank off the splined axel without any tools. There's no C-clip or whatever, just a plastic handel to rotate the axel. It can't be any easier. Or am I misunderstanding and are you talking about something else?

 

I would have to agree with NIX it can be pull off very easy without any tools

 

My 89 has the little clips on it like a GM and as a matter of fact some GM window cranks will fit and work on my XJ.
