Window regulator failed?

[70ranger]

My window wouldn't go up....only down. So after reading threads here about disassembly and regulator problems, I removed the window regulator today. I think the regulator is failed. The shaft for the crank on the backside (relative to the front being the window crank handle) seems to have a bearing surface which has separated from the pressed steel housing. It is completely seized. I've attached a picture. Is this part failed?

Also, my inside door handle hasn't worked in a long time. With the inner door removed, I tried pushing up on the part that is normally triggered by the short lever on the back of the inner door handle. I reached into the opening in the door panel and up to this part and pushed up as hard as I could...moved but didn't unlatch the door. The outside handle works fine. Two questions: Is there a likely failure for this condition? If I remove the lock assembly will it be difficult to align correctly for correct function when I reinstall the lock assembly?

Yeah, the pic shows it failed. It's a junk yard item or post up in the pars wanted section to see if anyone has a spare.

Thanks, guys. I figured it was done, dusted and toast, but wanted to be sure.

Fordman, I'd be interested in your inner door lock assembly as well as the regulator. I'm good to send you a check, money order, or could deposit money in a paypal account if you have one.

You might enjoy my temporary fix. I pushed the window all the way up and used two wooden shims (like you use with installing windows and doors) to measure the distance between the roller track on the bottom of the window and the bottom of the door. I just marked the overlap with one butted against the bottom of the door and one against the bottom of the window. I cut a wide notch in the end of a 1.5 inch square length of walnut lumber. Then I used the shims to transfer the length measurement to the walnut stock from the bottom of the notch and cut it to length. It works!
