Are there any "universal" options for window regulators too rusty too use? I need a couple for a 1975 Valiant. Can other mopar regulators be hacked to work? |

any thing is possible, but I would look for some one parting out a similar A body. over at FABO there are several guys that specialize in parting out cars. I would put a post up in the parts wanted section here and at For A Bodies Only or, another option is Wild Cat Wrecking,,,,, and lastly, another option to save your existing regulator is soaking it in Evaporust. |

No...there is nothing universal for the A-body, we ain't chevy/GMC... will need to determine if it's a 2 or 4 door unit as the window "arm" on the regulator is different lengths...and the side of the vehicle...it will be a 67-76 A-body interchange pending door count. Just to tell you a story about Wildcat... I sat and waited for 45 minutes to pick up the F-body 3.23 sure grip rear for my son's Aspen...while standing around another customer drove up from Roseburg to get a regulator for his 1968 Barracuda....Randy pulled a unit off the racks near the shop that had been in the weather for who knows how long...sprayed it with WD and rolled it up and down to show it worked...customer told me in the parking lot after they got my axle loaded and stopped before driving out that he paid $125 and it looked like crap (rusty), and wasnt sure how long it would last in his car, but nobody else had his "part", so he paid for it....If he had done his research he probably could have driven half way and gotten a later model regulator from the Pick A Part in Lebanon...he wasn't comfortable about the WD move, but felt he had no other choices at the time for a replacement. Caveat Emptor... |
