Victoria window riser
 

I bought a late 31 vicky driver this summer and have had an awesome time with it. The doors had sagged and rattled like hell so I fixed the sag and replaced the dovetail receivers and rubber door bumpers. OMG! What an amazing fix!!!! The problem is the drivers door window has partially fallen off the track. When I look down in the window opening it looks like the riser has two arms and one is off. Are there kits to rebuild the riser? I haven't seen a 2 arm riser in any of the catalogs. Help!?!?!?

All the parts are available to repair the double arm 1931 window regulaters. But.......I don't think you need to rebuild it. Sounds like it fell out of the track. We have what you need, but I would take it apart first and see whats wrong before I ordered parts.

can you take a picture of the end of the arms
they fit in the groove like the pictures and are kept in place by a spring
it sounds like maybe one arm came out of the slot for some reason
maybe a slipped gear ,or the button broke off or even the bracket with the slot broke loose
heres how it should look

Thanks for the pictures Mot! Took the door apart this morning got the front arm back on and the window now works nicely. Gonna drive it around today to make sure I don't have any further issues before I put the door panel back on. Thanks for everyone's help. This is an awesome source of information!!!!!
