My first one I did I screwed up the wiring and it was correct on the door but reversed on the master switch. (how I came up with that helpful tip)

if the motor works correct off the door switch but is reversed on the master- swap the green (86) and the blue(85) wires in the above diagram.

if the motor goes the same way on the…[Read more]

Helpful tip is to save the last 2 wires to hook up for the motor to relays wires these reverse polarity so it doesn’t matter if they are “backwards”.

I grabbed the power from the hot wire in each door, the center wire at the window plug.

Now I didn’t take any pics of the wiring but I mounted both relays to the inside of the removable panel (were the wires come out).

But anyway paint it, grease it and final install of the motor including spring tension.

I welded up the relief cuts. This pic is like mid weld too.

But you can see the section that was removed for the motor clearance. Then new holes drilled for the new mounting of the motor.

(Tyler mentioned that no cutting was needed when he did his, I could not locate a motor position that would fit without cutting.)

Step 1 remove door panel. (I didn’t realize the camera setting so the first couple are B&W)

First off credit to Tyler Nixon for spending the time to find a motor that will work for our cars.

Then parts list.

Yous should have enough skill to rebuild it. Use to swap it. The directions on the link above are good. I have found the part as cheap as $9 on amazon. I know I’m late.
