Default Re: Q: 34 Ford 3W which REAR window regulator

...thank you Terry for the pics of the regulator and correct set up. I am so relieved that i have the original part.
However, the comments and suggestions on how to improvise and look for alternatives is a great help, especially if the regulator is missing or broken.
Thanks a lot, now its to find the correct dimensions and thickness of the rear glass. My one is definately aftermarket and cut so badly and so irregular its just horrible to look at. Thats probably why the window closed and opened so badly too, like pointed out: if the glass does not fit properly to the channel and does not have the correct dimensions, it will work a lot worse, if at all!
I wonder if i should have it cut locally with a glass manufacturer or find a good reproduction or original rear window glass with correct dimensions!
Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
Many regards!!
