Thread: Nylon Wheel on Electic Window Lifts

There quite a few posts on here including AFAIR a project in Projects etc, dealing with this.
There is a way of fitting a house sliding door wheel to the arm.
Go down to the special Google search facility at the bottom of the page and google some variations of D1 window lifts etc etc .

Regards Philip A

I did the repair that uses a split nylon block made from a cut-up bread board. I found it to be a supremely elegant and effective repair that can be done without removing the winder mechanism from the car.

The wheel you want is a " rolltrak" 4361 replacement wardrobe door roller 25 mm x 6 mm from BUNNINGS or mitre 10 or like
You will have to dolly the track the roller runs in to make it a bit wider,, grind the remaining roller flush with arm and punch out the remaining shaft...after fitting the new roller its nut and shaft will need to me ground to half the thickness of the nut or else it will hit when going up and down ..after you've done one it takes less than 30 min when the next window goes out in in sympathy...Gary

I brazed on a dollor coin. There was a great post a while back on a home made fix one od the best I have seen.

My front passenger one is stuffed too, although I am still able to get the
Window up and down if I am careful with it.
I have looked into replacements, I have seen brass ones available. I think
It was either on Les Richmond website or tr spares

Anthony, curious what you mean by stuffed.
Mine open and shut fine but get stuck in the doors if I let them go down too far.
