Thread: Manual window regulators?

Tweet

i have been looking all over online for window regulators (manual) that will fit in my 27 chevy pickups doors.
there are no bone yards here.
i need something low profile that wont take up much space.
cost as always is paramount.
thanks fellas!!!!

I have the same question for a different hot rod. I want to go manual but I can't find anyone making manual regulators for generic uses.

Have you checked out VW Beetle regulators? Steve showed us how to modify them for more travel in his '41 Gasser build 41 Willys Gasser project One of the slickest manual operators I've seen....

It would be wroth your time to take a trip to a u-pick,and look so ya can get all the parts out of a door with the added know how of how it was working too.

I would also add to this, take a measurement of the window opening in the 27 and look for the same or close to the same from the donor car.

A word of CAUTION when working on or removing window regulators they are pre-loaded with a spring... If you take them apart you could realy hurt your fingers.
