Default Window Regulator Question

My front passenger window died this weekend. I tore the door apart and the plastic teeth that ride in the track are gone. Is it possible to buy the bracket that fits to the window that includes that part I do I have to buy a window regulator?

Thanks in advance

Time to go to the JY and pick one up.
I have done all 4 in my wife's 88 and converted my 94 2d from man to power. Regulators are about 20 bucks, harnesses changes from year to year, so clip wires and take the harness with you.
Depending on what year you own it will have bolts or rivets (take bolts when you go to JY, it will make life easier).
Get one from as new as you can. I have had the best luck with ones from a 96-98. The motors are fast and don't don't chug going up like the older ones do.

If you can, bring a small 12v battery with you to test the motor (lawn mower was the donor) and also move it up and down to remove the bolt that holds the regulator to the glass.

Hint: to easily remove the glass remove the two bolts on the bottom, lower the window (battery), remove the bolt, raise window (hand), keep it in place (screwdriver), remove the rest and reverse to install..

Yeah, if the teeth are gone, my thinking is this...
