window regulator nylon runner easy fix
5 Attachment(s)
I have just fixed and replaced a broken window regulator nylon runner wheel with a piece of rectangular plastic. It was easy and straight forward to do. I thought I might share my solution to the community :)
Please take a look at the pictures I am attaching. Should be pretty much self explanatory, but I am happy to add information if needed. Best, The Vivster. |
Thats a great idea. The poly plastic should be somewhat self lubricating too. Let us know how long it lasts too.

So far so good :) But I have it only for two days now. I promise to give an update once it is stop working. I bet the other silly nylon wheel runners from Land Rover in the other windows will give up before this one goes...
Cheers. |
there was someone on here that was making new rollers with a 3d printer, they were two piece you slid them over the stud and glued them together
|
Here's the 3d printed rollers:

would also make a nice post-it so people can find it when needed

I know this is an old thread, but can you tell us where you sourced the plastic?
I have this repair to do today, and was thinking of going to big lots and finding a cheap cutting board to hack apart. Thanks! |
Hi,
I just took a piece off of my driveway trash can :) It is thick, durable and strong. The window is till working... How did you manage with the fix? Good luck, The Vivster
