For a fact, my doors are BJ8, and they have always done that.

Rich -

I am sorry to tell you this but probably sometime in the past someone
replaced your doors with doors from a BJ7.  The doors are identical in
all respects except the shafts of the winow regulators are about a
half inch shorter.

You need to buy BJ8 window regulators.  I don't know if a new batch
has been made by anyone,  if not you'll have to get them used.

Some people weld extensions on the shafts, but I am not a fan of this solution.
