My drivers side sedan window came off track and I prolly bent one of the articulating arms pulling it up into the closed position.
Bummer.
Four rivets had to be drilled / ground out to remove the whole regulator to straighten the arm out. It can be done. Upside is that it all can be easily lubed when removed.
I used nuts, bolts, lock washers and loctite blue to re-install.
The clips that hold the balls in the nylon sockets are easy to install with window almost all the way down by using a long needle nose pliers.
This was 4 hour exercise:/ but very doable and in my case, no new parts needed:
