Too tight to roll, needs to be disassembled and modified to roll freely.

Doesn't roll freely, too tight. Here's the solution. Remove the punch and hammer from the side of the pin with the ball from the plastic roller. Don't worry, mine isn't torn. Insert the ball stud into the drill chuck and slightly reduce the diameter of the ball end with sandpaper. For a trial fit, push back into the roller, repeat until you have the correct clearance to allow the roller to move freely. Add some fat. Note: In my specific case, a Chevy K-10, the old ball stud was too big for me…

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Basically OK, but...

Did what needs to be done.

It seems to be one of those one-size-fits-all kits for countless uses, which somehow explains the lack of any instructions, any instruction manual.

Pros
  • Pretty impressive
Cons
  • Not everything fits

Window Roller Review

A couple of things, this doesn't appear to be a 'kit' for fixing an entire window. I have a 1995 GMC Sierra and a pulley with a nut and thread might be useful, as would one with a rivet shaft that you have to pierce. The third "roller" (to use the term loosely) has a solid shaft that looks like you have to push it in, which doesn't work for my year's truck. This leads me to believe that this is a single roller repair kit, depending on what type of roller you have for your car depends on which…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
