How about window regulator rollers?? I was thinking of getting some special santoprene or nylon washers made up to stretch over the existing hub on the regulator. Anybody have any other good ideas for roller replacement? Mine are in sad shape on my '48. Thanks - Bowtie

Thanks for the offer - I have all of the parts that the windows require to move (tracks, regulators, brkts...ect) it's just that the rubber looking material that rolls in the track is old and degraded. I found a guy on e-bay that will make washers to order, so I was going to order the major / minor dia, thickness and durometer to suit and stretch the new washer into place. I was just wondering if anyone else had any other ideas as to how to handle this. It must be a common retrofit. Bowtie
