window regulator replacement
« on: August 06, 2015 - 05:08:50 PM »
 Is there a manual page on replacing a '70 Cuda window regulator? I'm trying to figure it out.

Anyone have a CD available?
 My window was stuck in the up position. Trying to get it out so there's more room to remove the regulator.
Also, where can I find the fuzzy pads that press against the glass?

According to AMD, only the '70 regulator will work on the '70 Barracuda. The used one I bought has a smaller crescent gear. Has anyone tried a 71-74 in a 70 Barracuda?

I have and there are no issues.  The 70 does not look exactly the same as the 71-74, the 70 has more teeth but it does not use them all.  When I first put in the 71-74 reg in my 70 Cuda the window got hung up while I was rolling it up or down (I forget) and I thought I was screwed because I did not use a 70 style regulator.  It turned out it was just hanging up because the window guides had not been oiled yet.  There should be no issue except for appearance.
