1999 F150 power window question: Where are the other 1 or 2 mounting bolts?

It took 4 exploritory holes but I found the third bolt!

Not that I have the thing out, now what?

Ummm... fix it?

clean it....hook it to the batt n run it....put a short pipe to it and your ear...sound fnny ? hahaha...shaft wiggle ?....doesnlt turn ? runs hot ?

goes ERRRRRRrrrrr...

drag it over to Koffer's n find a replacement.

The cover on the gearing is revited. The motor has two bolts to detatch from the regulator.

I suppose I have to purchase the upper part rather than rebuild it

GNAW....go to the Ford dealer's parts counter...clean it first...the motor...put it on the counter and ask him what you need...ask to look at the exploded diagram on his screen.

if 2 units are revited chances are its really one unit.

there's an official Ford truck forum and a Ford Pickup truck forum and prob a 150 forum....try there.

remeber to lube the window slider once or twice a year. I use silicon grease meant for bicycle chains. Its too heavy but sticks good.

clean the fuzzy window frame sliders with dry toothbrush, soap n water, dry, silicon. The rubber seals ? clean with p-towel/silicon/credit card. lube with silicone. betcha never did that.

Thanks

I had to read this about 4 times to understand what you meant by "revited". RIVETED.

Thanks...I was hoping to find a used motor/gear assembly on Ebay or somewhere local

O O O O O

THERE'S COMPETITION for window motors....deal is how long a production run ? 1995 to 2006 ? OK but 2006 is how many years ago...7 ? count em on the ro ad.

I know several slightly crunched vehicles waiting for parts but the donor v ehicles are non extant..except for maybe Chobocca Flats, Eastern Painted De sert....

when you put it in, use blue Loctite on clean threads, lube and silicone al l sliders, clean n inspect bottom door maybe paint with rusto, clean all ca bles n lube entry points with sil grease, waterproof connectors with liquid insulation or dielectric grease or both.
