Do you mean window regulator? It has rivets that have to be drilled out and then you bolt in the new one, not that difficult.

Is the gear/splines that the window crank fits over stripped out or is it the threads that the window crank screw goes in to that is stripped out?

I don`t think it would work but you could try to tap and die it slightly larger so it would fit. If not you`ll have to as stated above drill out the three rivets or unscrew the 3 bolts. I forget what else you have to remove to get it out of there.
