Window Crank Interchangability

Short answer: 1968 and 1969 window cranks are the same, but there are two shaft lengths where the handle attaches — short for Standard trim, longer for Custom trim (to clear the thick padded door panels). The rears are the same Standard or Custom. (1967 fronts may differ.)

The 1968–69 regulators are the same (fronts in the two lengths for standard/custom; rears 1967–69 the same). Tip: since the chrome is usually what goes bad, buy replacement cranks from the parts-store “Help” line and swap your colored knobs onto them — or dye clear/white knobs with Rit heated to boiling, dipping until the color matches.
