I am not sure what car the Ph2 winders (window regulators) are from however we have repaired them in the past.

If you could send me some pictures of the offending items, or post them on here we can look into fixing them for you. keith@scholar-racing96.com

The ph1 uses a Sunbeam Alpine window regulator like this.

Not sure what the ph2 looks like.

Hello Paul,

I used a Marina rear door assembly bought new off Ebay. It's not 100% interchangeable but was OK with a couple of components being transferred from the old mechanism

Regards,

Howard

Hello Paul,

Some years ago Tony Stanton sent me a picture of a repair kit for window winders supplied by (I think) Willmot Breeden.

I infer that most British (or at least BL) cars from the 50s to the 70s essentially used the same rack and pinion mechanism with just the spindles and glass holders tailored to particular vehicles.

Regards,

Howard
