I'm still in need of two of the double roller, swivel rollers as shown in the picture for the quarter windows on my 69 Dart. I know they are available new but I am just looking for some used originals.

Buy new, most originals are cracked or getting ready to crack. These are the weak link in the quarter window regulators.
 
I have already done that. I paid $40 for two new ones and they both broke while trying to adjust the windows during installation. Broke rather easily I might add while trying to roll the window up and down during adjustment.
 
just so we know who did you buy the new ones from that broke?
 
I don't know who the original manufacturer/vendor was. I bought them at a swap meet from someone who bought them new and never used them.
 
If you get used ones pay close attention to the plastic where the shaft goes through. They tend to get spider cracks around the shaft. When I did mine I was not aware that you could get new ones. I went through several pairs of these before I found two that were usable.
 
Get the kit and replace them all.
Everything else is jammed up or dragging cuz the factory grease went hard.
The front roller carriages will be dragging hard on the guide, the rollers will be jammed, worn flat, or the carriages cracked.
Take it all apart, and clean and lube everything.
Then it'll work as it used to.
Been there a few times, there isn't a shortcut.
 
can you take a pic of the assembly that is attached to the glass.

I missed something putting mine back together and the rear track is empty.

:(

Thanks,
Bruce
