'78-96 Bronco Tailgate Window Regulator front & back
(early regulator arms may have round swivels instead of square)
Motor wires are 35", with a retainer 12" from the motor, a molded rubber 90° bend at 20", another retainer 1/2" past that, and the 3rd retainer around 32"

If EITHER the glass or the motor is installed, the regulator is safe. But if BOTH are removed with the arms down, the lift spring will snap both arms up violently, which could cause injury. The regulator must be in THIS position (nearly fully down) to remove it from the tailgate, but if the motor has to be removed, power it so the arms go to the full up position first. When the L arm is barely touching the stop, it's safe to remove the motor.

Actual dimensions w/motor: 11.5 lbs 24x16x3"
Actual dimensions w/o motor: 8.5 lbs 24x16x1.5"

The best grease for the slides & tracks is PTFE.
