I guess i should clariffy. i'm trying to get the regulator out. and it doesn't seem to want to come out easily. do they always fight or should it be simple and i'm just over looking something? thanks for the help.

uhh u mean like a screw holding it on???

 

Here are the instruction previously posted by Shifty101Easy on April 10, 2006 (searched forum after remembering topic from before). These instructions seemed worthy of repeating...

"heres the guide for future reference.....

1. Buy new regulator and get the tools out....
2. Drink lots of alcoholic and provide yourself with a few horse tranquilzers or else you will probably try to kill sombody from the frustration that comes from this job. Also have a gun handy incase u get pushed over the edge.
3. Take the window off the track then take the regulator out with track after unscrewing all the bolts holding the regulator on....
4. Repeat step 2.
5. Repeat step 2...followed by step 4.
6. Sit there with may tools and pieces strewn all over the garage.....wimper....and ask yourself...."How the hell am i going to get all the crap back in there...?"
7. Repeat 2, 4, 5.
8. Put track on new regulator, put new regulator in....screw track to window loosely and regulator to door.
9. Tighten everything up........do some burnouts while screaming "Whoo!!!!!!!!!!" like that wrestler Rick Flair.
10. Show everybody how good your windows roll up. (They wont care at all, but it dosent matter.)"
