What year is your truck? In another thread in this 1967/72 forum, you asked about window regulators for a 1965.

1961/66 different than 1967/69. 1967/69 different than 1970. 1970 different than 1971/72.

Did you try searching NPD, LMC, Dennis Carpenter, Mac's or any of the places that carry parts for our trucks? Can't say for certain as to the quality, but I know C&G Ford Parts, Mac's, Dennis Carpenter, LMC all have a listing for them.

Keep in mind they are a mechanical type regulator so the output is choppy. A modern digital multimeter will just display gibberish trying to measure the voltage so sometimes people replace them unneccessarily.

I've got a cluster out of a 68 that I have no plans for. Not sure if it works or not-

You can build one for about $3 or $4. I've made several for different people. Remember to disconnect the positive battery wire before doing ANY welding, or you'll burn up the electronic version IVR.
