'41 Coupe vent window regulator broke.

[Henry Floored]

Hey gang, well I did it again. My big meat hooks managed to break the pinion shaft when I tried to remove the vent window crank handle. The regulator unit is riveted together but I'm sure I can separate it to remove the pinion gear and shaft.

The question is does anyone know if the shaft and pinion gear is available and if so who might have them?

I'm going to do the other side tomorrow night so I might even need two. The square part of the pinion shaft seems to be frozen inside the crank handle housing.

All input is appreciated! Thanks

Mac's have rebuild parts for the regs. Disassembly isn't too difficult. Drill out rivets as I remember. Also check the gear inside. Original gears were some kind of die cast. Parts I bought from Mac's were aluminum. Have been on my car for years. Actually there is a complete set(R & L) on Ebay tonight. May save a lot of hassle. Search "1941 ford"
