I appreciate your input. The machine screws/nylocs are a nice idea. The pinion shaft is shot; wore right out. The window always stayed up as it should. I replaced this bad passenger side regulator with a very nice OEM specimen this past fall. The bad regulator that I removed is sitting here in the shop in poor condition; I thought that this would be an interesting winter's day project. Maybe I am a glutton for punishment! I am fortunate to find the NOS rebuild kit. I hope to be able to work on this project next week. I will likely make the repaired unit available on this site.
