Vent window pivot bracket?

[jaymc32]

I'm rebuilding my vent windows. The hole in the outer/upper vent window pivot bracket is reemed out pretty bad, the pivot fits very loosely. I would think this would affect how well the window seals so I need to replace it. I've checked all the vendors I know, does anyone know of a vendor selling just the bracket? It's the one attached in the middle of the outside frame and held on with two rivets.

Thanks for any info.

I used a stainless screw and nylock bolt to repair mine. Take it in with you to the hardware store and find the right size

Mines painted, PM'ed ya Rack Man.

I may have to explore the screw option if I can't find the brackets, I've spent hours searching now and nobody sells them.

The Repro windows are made by Counterpart. You may want to check out the Car and Truck Shop they may be able to get you one

Thanks Mike, I book marked them, hadn't been to there site yet.
Downloaded and viewed there catalog but could only find complete assemblies, rubber kits and rivit kits, just like everyone else.

This part must not fail often or it would come with the kits.

Luckily, rack man is giving me some spares he had (Thanks again Dan!).

What a great forum!!
