I noticed in the ebay psot that it has electric windows. Did you put that in or...?

No that isn't correct. It was a miss-print, I guess. Iv'e got stripped out old manual regulators with vise grip handles for 3 out of 4 of them. Real Classy! The tailgate window motor is working like a champ though.

Being as new regulators are fairly expensive and the cogged teeth part is not replaceable within them. I was thinking about fabricating up my own and tack welding them on the face. But for now the vice grips work great. Probably wouldn't go with power windows personally, but that's just because I like the simpler old cranks
