A successful Regulator Rebellion could accelerate the independence crisis

What if the 1760s Regulator Rebellion in North Carolina had succeeded, and how does it compare with Shays' and Whiskey Rebellions?

It could bring an independence crisis earlier, but the victors would still need taxes or another durable way to pay for government.

The question's geography is corrected from Virginia to North Carolina. A successful Regulator Rebellion in the 1760s could move the colonies toward an independence crisis earlier, much as later tax rebellions exposed tensions between settlers and government authority. Wealthier colonists often had strong incentives to support anti-tax agitation because they paid much of the tax burden and expected to benefit from reductions. Any victorious movement would still face the same state-capacity problem: a government expected to provide services must raise revenue somehow.
