With modification this kit will repair the window regulator where the small gear is badly worn. The swing gear should be inspected for wear before trying this repair. Machining skills are needed to do this.
1. Remove the 3 rivets holding the small gear casing, remove the worn gear.
2. Remove the centering pin from the regulator by carefully grinding the backside of the pin.
3. The square hole needs to be made round, I used a tapered reamer, then using a 5/16 inch straight reamer to get to the correct size for the new gear.
4. Fit the 5/16 hole to the new gear.
5. The new gear does not have threads for the handle retaining screw (1/4-20). Drill and tap to accept the screw.
6. The square is longer and you can use it as is or shorten it to the same length as the original gear. (I shortened it)
7. I used high temp bearing grease and assembled the new gear and casing using the supplied rivets. Two rivet holes need to be drilled in the new casing to match the W/regulator holes.
