Is there any solution other than replacing the entire regulator? | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 | What year truck are you asking about?

Otherwise I think you'll have to replace the entire regulator.

The real problem was the handle. It's made of softer material than the shaft so the teeth were worn out. A new handle was the proper fix.
Make sure the problem really the shaft; not the handle.
