Abstract: A cable-operated drive mechanism for a powered motor vehicle sliding closure panel and method of construction of the cable-operated drive mechanism is provided. The cable-operated drive mechanism includes a cable drum mechanism having a first cable drum supported for rotation about a first drum axis and a second cable drum supported for rotation about a second drum axis. A first cable winds and unwinds about the first cable drum in response to rotation of the first cable drum in opposite directions and a second cable unwinds and winds about the second cable drum in response to rotation of the second cable drum in opposite directions. A drive member is operably coupled to at least one of the first cable drum and second cable drum to drive the first and second cable drums in unison with one another.

Abstract: A pulley assembly with tensioner for a motor vehicle sliding closure panel and method of facilitating assembly of a motor vehicle sliding closure panel to a motor vehicle is provided. The pulley assembly with tensioner includes a housing and a bearing hub biased for sliding movement within housing from a pre-assembled position to an assembled position. An axle supporting an adjuster pulley is carried by the bearing hub for conjoint movement between the pre-assembled position and the assembled position. A blocking feature is configured to extend into the housing to a primary blocking position to maintain bearing hub in the pre-assembled position. The blocking feature is moveable to a release position, whereat bearing hub is biased to the assembled position. The blocking feature is moveable to a secondary blocking position, whereat the bearing hub is prevented from returning from the assembled position to the pre-assembled position.
