Window Regulator Vendor Help - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**JJanzen** · 12-14-2009, 01:57 PM

I bought a box of parts and in it were two window regulators. One was for a 72(drivers side) and the other was for a 67-71(Passenger side). I need to find a passenger side 72 regulator and I wanted to find the same brand. Can someone please tell me if they recognize the packaging in this picture? At first I thought it was GM but it doesn't say GM anywhere on it. Thanks for the help!

Counterparts brand is what you have. The car and truck shop in orange california and other venders here carry them- expect $35 or so.

Can you tell me about their quality, etc.? Would I be better off refurbishing some original GM regulators or going with these? Thanks. Joel

Yep its Counterparts. They have a retail store. Funny how they try and make them look like a GM part even with the little square.

Fools many people at first.

They work better than old worn out ones. No one has ever returned one to us unless it was wrong. We have had them put the rollers on the wrong side so their QC is not that good but We have only had that happen twice. I used them and they worked. I would get some opinions from customers that have used them.

I just ordered a pair for my 72 from "Classic Parts", they were $29 each. I should receive them tomorrow so I have no idea of the quality. I have always had good luck with Classic Parts, they used to be called "Chevy Duty". I bought a complete cab rebuild kit for my 69 about ten years ago and all the parts were great, they were also the least expensive of all the vendors I looked at.

A few months ago I got one from Classic Parts. It works perfectly and I'm fully satisfied with it. Even came pregreased.
