Re: Palf's Little Blue Jimmy

The drivers side window regulator finally gave out. Got the new one and rubbers in yesterday so I tackled it today. Had to remove all the guts as rubbers were also damage and it made for the use of less "adjectives" during the work process, although several were used especially during the disassembly. It has been a while (15 or so years) since I done one with manual windows.

Everything out (1st & second pic). The regulator was so tight even multiple lubes wouldn't help free it up to work smooth.

Cleaned the window track part up and lube it up with lithium grease.

The new one was hard to find (everyone back ordered, but found one on ebay. It seems good. Hopefully China doesn't bite to bad on this one. (Pic 4).

All back together with new rubbers and felts. (pic 5).

Later I got the inside panels on and all seems to be well in the world again.
Next is seeing if I can change out the speedo pointy thing.
