Default Window motor repair

I have a 1992 SC 400 the window motor runs fine I took it apart and found it needs a drive that is made out of plastic,rubber sandwiched between steel to drive the regulator I figure the rebuilders must be able to get them, can anyone help?

They are not expensive enough to justify the time to rebuild them. I do not recall the price but I am going to say you can buy a replacement for $60. That is the window regulator track and drive that it sounds like you are describing. I think you buy the same part when the cable separates. I have done both of mine sometime in the last ten years.

Default Here is the homade fix for the Problem, but still looking for the part???

. Glue and clamp the pieces back together and leave overnight.

drill and countersink the metal plate in 3 places, and drill and tap the metal section of the rubber spacer / shock absorber, I would suggest 4mm. You can then bolt the rubber and metal sections together for added security. Sorry for the ropey drawing!
