[QUOTE=Number1_dog;6849474]Received my E-bay Digital Scale and for pre 1980 Parallel Window Regulators the weight savings by going with Manual Regulators is 2.6 Lbs per side for a total of 5.2 lbs. That is the weight of the Manual regulator (4 lbs) v. the weight of the Electric regulator and the electric motor (6.6 lbs).

Every pound counts if you are getting down to a serious deletion. Thanks for the precise weight.
I'm considering a nylon pull strap window lift and deleting all of the 'guts' using a motorcycle tie down as a donar. The webbing is thin and only 1 in wide. The thumb pinch holders would make fine up/down adjusters as rated for 1200 lbs ea.
Would be easy to make it look clean with RS door panels.
