Default rebuilt my window regulators today...what a difference!

YUP! today we did it...all 6 hours of it :yesnod:
but now my windows work great...no rattles...no wind leaks...
we replaced everything listed in this article http://zip-corvette.com/techarticles/win/win.htm plus a couple of additional parts and it made a HUGE difference...

Same here. My windows are in real need of a little loosening up. They have tightened up and are a little hard to roll up on the drivers side. This should help out tremendously. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the link SIGNGUY. I'm tired of getting ripped off for door/window work. Didn't know ZIP had a technical workshop. :thumbs:

I redid mine 9 years ago. Now I can redo it correctly. Never had all the correct parts. Mine work but not like new.
