If your pop riveter is the same as mine, after you install a rivet you must turn the tool over and spread the arms and the stem from the old rivet will drop out. I had one stem stick inside the tool, and had to disassemble the whole thing...if you have to do this, have a friend with you...you need 4 hands.
remove trim panel and check for bolts holding the regulator in. Some cars have rivets, big ones that have to be drilled out and a heavy duty riveter to install. Call your local dealer and ask them how much to rpelace and if it has rivets.
you will need to drill out some rivets. Replace with ntus and bolts and washers & lock washers. Make sure they don't hit glass going up and down. Otherwise you will need a heavy duty riveter.

WARNING: Prior to power window motor removal, make sure the regulator arms are in a fixed position to prevent counterbalance spring unwind. Failure to place the regulator arms in a fixed position can cause the spring to suddenly release resulting in personal injury. NOTE: The counterbalance spring assists the window in the upward direction. Remove the bolts and the window regulator motor.
I have had this problem several times before(every door). The regulator is cable operated and can come off the nylon pulleys. I have been able to get them back, but usually the nylon is damaged and it won't stay on. The other thing is the regulator is riveted to the door shell with 1/4" rivets. You will need a riveter capable of setting them. The best way to remove the rivets is to use a hammer and punch to first drive out the steel mandrel before drilling with 1/4" drill. The regulator itself is around $50 from Ford, you'll want to get the correct rivets at the same time. The rivets that hold the glass to the regulator are different than the ones that hold the regulator to the door(longer). You can get an inexpensive riveter at Harbor Freight for less than $20.
