Chevyss Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Where is a good place to purchase window cranks? The ones I got from Paddock are junk. Two of them have failed already and they aren't even a year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallaby Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 The plastic knobs are falling off I imagine? I have had the same problem; the knobs seem loose from the get-go. The "HELP" section in the auto parts store has 'em....they may be no better, but I'll bet they are cheaper. You can get vice grips there, too. I've seen that done before. LOL It probably wouldn't hurt to oil the inner door mechanisims to make it easier on the crank handles. No great solutions, but suggestions nonetheless.

Chevyss Posted May 26, 2010 Author Share Posted May 26, 2010 It's the grooves that strip out. I've put two of the original back on the driver's side (only ones that get used all the time. Never thought about the HELP section at the parts store. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 I've got the Autozone Window cranks on my 70 Monte, they've been on for probably 4 years now. All good so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyDavey Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Jared...really...it's okay to get them at Autozone but don't admit it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Richey Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Jared...really...it's okay to get them at Autozone but don't admit it..... Yeah you're right. $5.00 off the help shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpnewlin Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 It is no wonder that Autozone has no customer service if all that you are spending is $5.00. Throw in some floor mats and tire shine next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
