Window reg axe removal

[mike sampsel]

So to remove the post “title part” up out of the door window slot, I assume I need to remove the spring in the photo. What could possibly go wrong? Doing this to keep this side empty for painting.

Just move the clip in red circle off and pull?

Probably won't come out of the center pivot. It comes out the bottom, not the window slot.

Thanks, will it come out at bottom as is? Or do I need to remove the spring?

You can remove the regulator assembly as is (without removing the spring) through the bottom hole.

Meanwhile it's like a cruel jigsaw puzzle getting it out and back in - you need to slide the rails back and forth on the rollers to get it positioned to remove & re-insert.

Wish I would have taken photo's last time I removed mine, but I'm not sure it would really be all that helpful, in the end noting: be patient and figure it out.

Good luck,

Okay, good to know it’s like a jigsaw puzzle GORDO.
Thanks for the info

Agreed. Once it is in the right position it comes out rather easily... finding the right position is the challenge.

Well at least I asked before barging in here! And you guys were great to help. Managed to get axe and reg out in about two minutes! For posterity here is the extraction position
