What power window kit to get

Ok so long time lurker.
I have a 56 cmall window pick up. I converted to one piece from brothers a few years back. Now my problem has always been keeping the windows to ride smooth up and down. I have striped two regulators from brothers because of the misalignment. Now I want to go to power.
I have been eyeing the kit from ezwireing but want to kow what everyone is running.
thanks for any input in advance

Re: What power window kit to get

There is a thread here about one piece windows and a rework.

Here is a link
http://www.thehollisterroadcompany.c...ecewindow.html

I didn't do any of the work I just host the files. There is a link to the original thread on the page

Re: What power window kit to get

I also used Nu Relics. They are heavy duty, but on my truck there was some interference with the inside of the door on my 54. I had to pull the inner door out some to get everything to work. It only happened on one door so it might have been the door itself. Also you should check your tracks and see what is causing the binding even though you will get one new track with the Nu Relics kit. Thanks for your service. May you and the rest of your family enjoy your life in peace.

Re: What power window kit to get

Thanks to everyone for there info. I never realised that there where so many options out there for power windows.
I appreciate everyones support, but remember it means more when someone is willing to stand back and support.
