    IsuzuParts.com is what I use. Others will undoubtedly chime in with Merlin at St. Charles, but I find that the price shipped is about the same. (From what I can see the advantage to Merlin is that he'll work hard to find stuff that's backordered / unavailable). But either one should have the regulators in stock.

    There's also a link on the bottom right of the main page to a new contact for Isuzu parts. Jim something, I don't have experience with him, but you could shoot him an email.

    If you mention this website, Merlin will ship free.

    Right, but Merlin with no shipping generally equals IsuzuParts with shipping.

    I'm in neither camp, whoever has my parts is who I go with. But they're generally the same price.

    I got reman motors from Napa for something like $75 I think. I didn't need to replace the regulator.

    Sorry for the dumb question, but WTH is the regulator? Some people seem to think it is the switch, I have always thought it was the mechanical parts that the motor attaches to...
    So, which part(s) make up the "regulator"?

    You are correct, the regulator is the mechanical part.

    My drivers side window just stalled in the lowered position. it will move up an inch, but no more.

    I took the door apart, and the cable that winds around the drum, and pulls the window up and down shreaded a few strands and they birdnested forming a jam.

    Undoutably this is due to the extra effort it exerts to lift our poorly aligned windows.

    Monday I'll be calling around for a replacement.
