    I have a 47 Chevy Fleetline 2 door both regulators have teeth missing on one end. Any idea what fits or where I can find two? Are coupe and sedan the same regulator? Mine is a aerosedan

    Another option is to find a regulator with a similar diameter gear, cut out a section where the teeth are and weld it in place.

    Both missing teeth? Were they taken apart? Just seems strange is all. Are you sure this isn't a case of not putting them back together properly?

    I agree with the others, weld and grind. Or replace them with these about 1990 or thereabouts Jeep Cherokee window regulators that have the same window crank splines as your old ones. The down side is that some modification is needed to fit the crank retaining clip. Since the Jeep has curved door gl***, the regulator needs a wee bit of straightening for flat gl***; something you can do with your bare hands. IMG_1597.JPG
