Wheres the best place to buy New Window Regulators?

[SnakeVX]

Need to buy 2 new window regulators for the Vehicross
these 2 are shot.
hopefully if I get new ones atleast they will last for a little while.
who sells them online?

IsuzuParts.com is what I use. Others will undoubtedly chime in with Merlin at St. Charles, but I find that the price shipped is about the same. (From what I can see the advantage to Merlin is that he'll work hard to find stuff that's backordered / unavailable). But either one should have the regulators in stock.

There's also a link on the bottom right of the main page to a new contact for Isuzu parts. Jim something, I don't have experience with him, but you could shoot him an email.

Btw, it may be possible that the regulators are still okay, but that the track needs lubrication. I went to the trouble of ordering a driver's side regulator/motor assembly, only to have the installer find out after replacing it that all it really needed was a little white lithium grease down the tracks. No harm no foul, now I have a spare in the garage when I need it.

Worth a try if you haven't already.

Hi snake!
Two weeks ago my windows stopped working;Thought was the switches/regulators.
I was about to purchase all that & ended up being a relay located behind the driver's kick panel.
There's three relays,you can test it by switching those relays ( they all have same voltage/amperage/configuration & try see if your windows work
Yesterday i went to a junk yard & got one for $ 20 from a 98 rodeo which use the same relays.
The window relay is the 3rd one.

By the way, how do I know when the regulators are bad? When my drivers side window came off the track a few weeks ago I had my mechanic take a look at it. He claims I need a new motor and regulator. I'm skeptical about the motor, I suspect some lube in the tracks will take care of the poor slidability(?), but what indicates a bad regulator? I am ordering the SBC brackets and would like to install the reg at the same time if I need one.

Didn't I read on another thread that the regulators from a Rodeo will work, only you need to switch them left for right, and vice versa?

Regulators? Are you talking about the rocker switch boxes located in the driver/passenger door handle? I have two driver side switch boxes... no pass side tho... they are used but work... I'll sell them cheeeep... 40% of the best price you have on a new one... plus shipping.

If you mention this website, Merlin will ship free.

This is exactly what happened to me, which is why I have a spare working regulator/motor in my garage.

Right, but Merlin with no shipping generally equals IsuzuParts with shipping.

I'm in neither camp, whoever has my parts is who I go with. But they're generally the same price.

I got reman motors from Napa for something like $75 I think. I didn't need to replace the regulator.

[samneil2000]

Sorry for the dumb question, but WTH is the regulator? Some people seem to think it is the switch, I have always thought it was the mechanical parts that the motor attaches to...
So, which part(s) make up the "regulator"?

[VX1032]

You are correct, the regulator is the mechanical part.

[Hotsauce]

My drivers side window just stalled in the lowered position. it will move up an inch, but no more.

I took the door apart, and the cable that winds around the drum, and pulls the window up and down shreaded a few strands and they birdnested forming a jam.

Undoutably this is due to the extra effort it exerts to lift our poorly aligned windows.

Monday I'll be calling around for a replacement.
