Yes, this is exactly how I repaired mine. It does work and will last, but the process can be tough. Mike B. ----- Original Message ----- From: Todd P Last To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 2:07 AM Subject: Re: Window-Driver side door
In my 88 this was the pop rivet coming out of the window regulator. It eventually allowed the cable to snag - which required a new window regulator. Someone once posted a recommendation to replace the pop rivets with nuts and bolts to avoid this failure. Todd '88 Westy Bob Stevens wrote: ... speaking of front door windows .....
