I recently bought my first ford truck, which is also my first diesel truck. I love it but some parts seem impossible to find. My drivers power window would only go down about 2 inches then stop. Since it would slow down gradually as the window went down I thought it was a weak motor and I had had the exact same symptoms with a jeep I once had. IN teh jeep the motor just needed replacing. So, without doing any in depth diagnosing, I just bought a new motor and installed it. Guess what, the exact same problem was there. Well it's not the motor but since I had the door apart I noticed the regulator slides were heavily worn and binding. I thought "OK now that I know the real problem I will have this fixed real quick. I went online and looked everywhere, even to PartsGuyEd website. There is no such thing as a power window regulator available anywhere for Super Duty trucks 99-04. I take that back, you can fing them but they have the motor already installed. I already have a new motor, I just need the new regulator. I can get a brand new regulator by itself for almost every other truck inthe world even my 1960 ****** L6-226 Pickup where only about 50,000 were produced. There must be about a million Superdutys but some parts just seem impossible to find. Could someone please show me the light.

 

I have some good used regulator slides (actually whole manual regulator units) left over from converting to power windows. I think they are the same. You can have them if you pay the shipping costs - USPS flat rate box.

PM me if you are interested.

Thanks for the offer but I really wanted to put new parts in there. I have found regulators for manual windows but from the info on the descriptions I was under the impression they were different and wouldnt work.

 

His site has no parts under window regulator for my year and style. ED, If you're out there please help!

 

Bump to the top

 

Shop around. We had a situation with the car where window regulators have weak plastic slider.
Dealer wanted for whole regulator $120, when some search found a slider at aftermarket supplier.
the cost ... $7

you are headache saver thanks

 

I guesds it would help if I opened my eyes.

 

Don't feel bad. Those drop down menu catalogs can be a pain if you don't have some experience with them.

I couldn't find an engine oil temp sensor. Come to find out the engine coolant temp sensor is the same part number. Who would have thought it, but it makes sense.

 

Heres a write up i did when i replaced mine. Super easy job.
