73 Ford F250 Window regulator problem

I got a 73 Ford F250 whose driver's side window wont seem to roll up or down. The handle will rotate, but the window does not move. I think it might be a problem with the window regulator, but I can't seem to find anything on this problem for my truck's model.

Pull the handle and check the internal spines on the handle and the external splines on the regulator. I'm guessing one or the other has worn out. 40 years will do that. If that's not it you'll have to pull the door panel figure out whats wrong.

yeah I just pulled it out. The regulator wont budge and the teeth don't seem to be meshing. I hate to say it, but I will probably have to get a new one.

I am tired of fighting my drivers side window. Rockauto has regulators starting at $29 for Dorman brand. $35 for Cardone. LMC is asking $50 and Dennis Carpenter has 2, $50 and $100.
