Not sure but my guess is yes.

The fronts going out at the same time? Might not be the motors?

driver side started to go first then the pass followed. ive checked fuses and all that. the driver window still goes up and down but while doing so it clicks and stops and i have to help it with my hand. and the pass side doesnt move at all but i do hear a noise when i hit the button, also pass side falls down constantly, i actually removed door panel and put clamps on the guides so the window doesnt fall

the rear window regulator are not the same as the front and the rear ones are harder to find. i just replaced my driver rear and couldn't find a new one so i bought a driver front and it is different and wont fit, i had to get a used one from a junk yard. i did find a guy online that will rebuild your old one for like 65 or 75 i think not to sure on the price but pretty close, hope that helped

how hard are they to take out and re install? it looks pretty hard as the door doesnt just unbolt and open up(would be nice). If its to hard itll prolly be easier to buy new ones and install rather than rip ones out from the wrecker. thanks for the help

The hardest part of removing and reinstalling them is removing the door panel some junk yard have them already taken off or at least the one where i got mine did.

Take your time and find all the screws and they are easy to remove :imo:

No, the rear regulators are very different from the fronts an are quite a bit more expensive IIRC.

I need to replace out my rear driver side window regulator on my 2001 Yukon XL Denali. It got stuck leaving about a 6 inch opening. Have any of you seen a DIY write up on how to do this exactly? Luckily I found a place near my house in socal that has em for $112. Ive seen them any where from $250-300 everywhere else. Thanks in advance
