Default 34 Pickup Window Regulator Grease

Guys,
Is there a way to take apart the window regulator on my 34 pickup? I'd like to clean out any old grease that might be remaining and put new grease in. It looks as though the regulator is sealed?
Thanks!
John

You can pack grease in from the backside where the gear runs. The grease gun will force it into the gear unit.

Back in the old days my grandfather washed parts in kerosene the dunked them in heated to liquid grease then set them aside to cool. Don’t know if that’s what you can do. I seen my grandfather do bike chains and machinery parts that way.

TJ: That's a good suggestion. I'll either do that try the liquid grease dip approach.

Action: I washed the parts in Kero (I splurged and got the fresh scent Kero, sure doesn't smell too bad). I like the liquid grease idea. I'll take a look at the geometry of the regulator.

Thanks for the responses. I'm anxious to get this project back together.
