The newer (6 year old replacment) window regulator has decided to seperate itself.
The arm with the big spline is off the crank body.
Has anyone have a pickture of the BACKSIDE of the regulator.
All the ones i see are of the front online.
I Want to know how its connected as in can i feel this thing back together bolted or am I going to have to go the shop manual route and take this whole thing apart.

In my Build thread, post #660, there is a picture. I'm not sure if it is considered the front or back side though.

That is on page 27 and I think that is the front side.

Pulled regulator out of door.
As you can see it has two hole sizes where a shoulder rivet would have been.
I found shoulder bolt that would work at Grainger but it was way way to long.
So went with the 3.48 cent repair. Since its inside door looks did not matter.
Drilled smaller hole to same size as larger hole.
Bought a longer bolt than needed to get the smooth shaft portion.
Sandwiched it all together with white lithium grease.
zipped on the nylon nut till snug then backed it off a little.
Used a cuttoff wheel to zip of the threads sticking out.
Then put it all back in. Works like a charm. And it goes up and down smooth since i got the chance to grease it all up good.
