Hi all:

I have a 1974 Chevy G10 and am looking to swap out the regulators. What you would think would be an easy fix and accessible part doesn’t seem to be. I did a look through forums without too much success on clear answers to potentially dumb questions:

Will C10 regulators work in the G10? I know the doors are vastly different but the space In the door that holds the regulators seem similar.

Is there any option for new reproduction regulators or Do I need to find NOS or Pull them off a parted out van?

Thanks for the help!

Deke

Thanks for the lead. I’m not seeing any regulators on Rock Auto for G series vans. Did you get the C Truck regulators and did they fit?

Chevy pickup truck regulators are similar - but different enough that they won't work (yes, I tried).

I've been looking for a decent set of manual regulators myself and haven't found any that are in better shape than the janky ones I already have. My driver side one is especially bad.

This link is for the C10 as opposed to the G10. Is this year range of C10 the same as the vans?

Unless those are somehow different than the regs I pulled from an old C10 at a yard a while back they are not the same, as I mentioned above.

Thanks everybody. Please let me know if anybody forgives this out, hard to imagine no repo parts are made for the van when the truck parts are all over the place. I might be SOL!

Manual or electric? I'm junkyarding tomorrow and I know there are g vans with manual windows. Electrics are nearly impossible to remove/install without power. Manuals are cheap at the yard but shipping will prolly kill any deal. You are prolly at $100 for a pair. Do you want me to look for you? Left, right or both?
