My mom has a 2003 QC.

It's been a GREAT truck except-

I believe this is the seventh time a power window regulator has failed.

They always fail the same way.
The nylon guide for the cable at either end of the channel cracks or breaks and the window then falls.

I've tried a different brand each time starting with the third one (sure wish I'd have written them down) including (gasp) ac delco.

It's been so bad that the last time the rears failed I just put in wooden braces to keep them permanently up.

Anyone had success with a specific brand that didn't do this after a few years?
 
Are you referring to the rollers?
 
Have you asked at dakota-durango.com?
Like its forum they are apretty knowledgeable group.
I cant answer you question as my Dark is a 92.
 
I haven't been active over there for a decade.
 
I replaced the channel wheels on my Ram that were nowhere to be found at the time with the dealer telling me I had to but the whole damn regulator. I got some nylon wheels from a GM dealer that fit (after boiling them in water to make them pliable) - saying in case this is what your dilemma is ...
