Maybe. I'll bet the manual regulators still have plastic rollers on them. But it would be cool for a trail rig. No concern about electric motors getting wet when you go wading.

I used to think manual windows would be far cheaper to work on, but once power became pretty much the standard, the prices aren't too much better. I remember when I used to order parts for a Honda garage I priced a manual regulator that had stripped out at the crank for a Honda Accord. It was just as much as the burned out motor for a power window from the same year.

I like those tires, I was looking for a set for my truck but they are discontinued.

....like a kid in a candy store.

Unless it's yellow or has a safari top don't bother. This is the only time I'd recommend yellow anything......or a top.

Think of the money you'll save on shipping. You may need to be innoculated for Rover Rash, it can be spread by ungloved contract with any OEM part.... look's like an off-spring educational option...

That's pricey for just one. I wonder if the guy for OK is still selling the ones he made...

Yeah but supposedly the rollers break far more often than the actual regulator. The rears only have one instead of three, so they're not too bad to upgrade.

The Borrego Yellow looks good, but I like the sandglow better.
