For what it's worth, I rebuilt a windshield regulator on mine following the Tech Tip. Frankly, it was pretty easy. My truck had no regulator in it when I bought it but I found one from another 'Bolter for $40 I think it was. I planned on using it as a core and sending it to Chev's of the 40's or Jim Carters. But since the stainless strip was not broken...nothing was broken just rusted up. Mine was rusted solid but still tapped apart fairly easily. I wire wheels each of the part thoroughly and put it back together as described in the Tech Tip. I lubed the mechanism with white molybdenum grease. SInce I was able to get it completely clean I didn't paint it It looked too good! So I just wiped it down with WD-40 and it works great; completely smoothly.
