1956 Ford Truck Front Door Power Window Kit - One Piece Glass

One piece glass. Two doors. Power up. Winding a window down on a hot afternoon while you are trying to pay at a drive through is one of those small things that wears on you. It is also the easiest quality of life upgrade in the cab. This is the front door kit for a 1956 Ford truck running one piece glass. Two regulators; left and right; with two new ACI motors and the lower glass channels that support the taller glass. The regulators bolt into the original mounting holes and use the stock channels. Nu-Relics builds them on 1018 cold roll steel with bronze Oilite thrust bearings at the pivots and 4130 heat treated gear plates; that combination is why these keep working when a cheap regulator has already worn its teeth round. Pick your switch style at checkout. Add a switch kit and the conduit comes at no extra charge; skip the switches and you get motor plugs and terminals instead. One thing to plan for: these ACI motors are reverse polarity. Your switches have to match.

  • Bolts to the original holes - the regulator goes where the factory one came out; no drilling the door skin.
  • New ACI motors - not rebuilt units; the motors are the part that decides whether the window still works in ten years.
  • 1018 cold roll steel regulators - built from stock that holds its shape under load instead of flexing at the pivot.
  • Bronze Oilite bearings and 4130 gear plates - lubricated pivots and heat treated teeth; the two places a window regulator normally dies.
  • Channels for one piece glass - the lower glass channels that support the taller glass come in the kit.
  • Lifetime warranty - backed for as long as you own it with your receipt.

Install Level: Moderate

 New ACI Motor AMP Draws

No Load amps Low Load amps High Load amps Stall amps
3 5 11 20
ACI Motors are Reverse Polarity
This means that the ground for the system must come out of the master switch. There are 2 poles on the motor - to make it operate,
you must put power to one side then ground to the other side - NOT to the motor case. This will result in the motor turning in one direction.
By swapping the wires from side to side, the direction will change.

Fuses or Circuit Breakers - 30 AMP
Most of our harnesses will come with an in-line 30 AMP fuse. If you prefer, a circuit breaker will work too.
You can hook your windows up to a varity of different power sources.
Some options are: Straight to the battery (Windows should not have any battery draw when not in use).
 Find extra slot in fuse panel - tie in using the supplied fuse.
 Pull power from the key-on side of the switch

Relays
In most cases, you will not need to use a relay to boost amperage to the motors. The switches and wiring we use can handle the amp draws.

If you are using old style 3 pole switches, a special relay is needed to reverse the polarity at the motor. These do not increase amperage,
they just swap the ground from side to side. we have these available (prewired). Call us at 336-699-8949 for assistance.

Grease & Oil
1. On the regulator gear teeth and roller tracks, we recommend using a high temp automotive wheel bearing and chassis lubricant.
NLGI grade 2 is one option
2. Avoid the older soap based lithium grease - it sets up hard in cold weather making the windows harder to move
3. A few drops of light weight oil in the pivot points will allow the Bronze Oilite ® bushings to work smoothly and reduce wear.
4. On fuzzy runs and weather stripping - some 3M Silcone spray can help with break in
5. Use Die-Electric grease or Tuner Lube on all terminals and connections. This protects against moisture and corrosion.
