Changing window regulator

[sparx]

How tough is it to change out a window regulator. The driver's side on my car gets stuck at the bottom- up or down cranking. Tracks are clear but the mechanism is very sloppy, handle shaft wobbles significantly.

Also who sells a good regulator?

Couldnt be an easier job to replace the window regulator. I can swap one out in about 15 minutes. There is a great video on how do this I will post the link below. As far as a good one goes? Your guess is as good as mine, I ordered 2 new ones from Mustangs Unlimited, not sure the brand, but the pop rivets broke out of it after a week of use...but I took it out, put some heavier rivets in it and it has worked great ever since, nice and smooth operation. Anyway, good luck with it and lots of other good how-to's on this site.

Hmmm, can't help ya there bro, make sure your computer is updated with all the latest media player and whatnot, starts right up on my machine at home and at work. I suggest a reboot and try it again. If that don't work, try somebody elses computer or hire a teenager to fix yours =)

Its easy but can be tricky. You have to fold the long arm in bit. You feed the regulator behind the door shell. I kind of roll the regulator into place. Then you can get the main part with the shaft into place.
To get the arm to align with the roller tracks, use your window crank. I hope that makes sense, my posts usually dont.

I downloaded Media Player and still nothing.

There is no arrow to click on on the link page?
Maybe the site does not like Mozilla?

I still appreciate the link and info guys

EDIT: Yes, the site only works with IE explorer
