    Hi There! I'm A new old Chevy truck owner. Just bought a 1965 K10 longbed fleetside, 4 on the floor, with what I have discovered is a 283(CU) out of a 1958 vette. Here in SW Colorado, they don't use salt on the roads, so there is some, but very little metal cancer.
    My need is for now, where to find regulator rollers for 1965, there seems not to be listed. Only 55-63 & 67-72, surely someone has replaced theirs, shine some light on what is the path to take, PLEASE!

    Thanks Dennis for the reply!
    However, you might reread the original post. It reads ROLLERS not regulator. I am aware that the regulator is available, however the original is still good only in need of rollers replacement. But, being a professional GM & Jeep parts person, I also know some things are not replaceable in components, only assemblies. Just because it comes apart does not mean it's sold that way.
    Of course, everything on these old trucks have usually been adapted to work. Thought perhaps someone out there had found some rollers that were workable, saving the regulator as a more expensive option.
    Thanks again, our host will continue to get a portion of my paycheck I'm sure. JB
