Window Regulator

[Leon R]

My DS window was totally STUCK! I removed the Motor/Actuator and it was stuck. Even the window itself was stuck in its rails!

My motor/actuator assembly looked very nice on the outside:



However, taking apart the motor told a very different story!





It almost looks like at one point, it was partially full of water!

It appears that the rest of my mechanism is just fine, but I do need a new motor! I do not feel like getting another good looking, but ruined on the inside, used motor. What is the best "new/remanufactured" option?

EDIT: I ended up ordering "Cardone Remanufactured Window Lift Motor Part No: 47-4308" from Advance Autoparts. It was $132 - 20% discount. I will let everyone know how it works out.

Sue,
I installed the passenger side window regulator. I'm waiting a couple of days for the glue to set up in this cold weather before I try it out. In the meantime, do you have any leads on a driver's side window regulator?
Thanks.

Maybe check with the several owners parting out a truck now…
Look on ebay for a seller selling any VX part and contact them to see if they might also have the regulator.
A new regulator is about $95 from Merlin, and they're available.
