Hey everyone.
Looking to convert to power windows. My window cranks are a bit chewed up and the after market handles the previous owner put on don't stay on. I could drill and thread the cranks and run a bolt through them or loctite, but they rattle a good amount as well and reaching over to roll the window down for my dog gets old. Looking to clean up the interior/get it quieter/add some creature comforts anyways.
I saw this thread (http://www.mightyram50.net/vbulletin/showthread.php/473-Power-Windows-anyone?highlight=power+window+conversion) where some guys discussed this in 2011. I was curious if these kits (https://www.ebay.com/itm/364631640563?chn=ps&google_free_listing_action=view_item&gQT=1) are worth it or if anyone knows if they're torque-y like pennyman said. And whether or not a power regulator from other cars would work instead (like the 1st gen Montero). Seems like a more elegant solution anyways.
