    i had a problem with my windshield wipers on my truck - i took the protective shroud off directly underneath the windshield to work on it and i didnt put it back - last fall a lot of leaves fell on the truck and when i turned on the blower i could hear the leaves inside the fan

    in the truck when you take the fan motor out the little round fan cage is attached to it - i cleaned out the leaves and put it back and put the shroud back on and its good as new

    so if its the same all you have to do is take it out - clean out whatever is in there, bolt it back on

    if the motor is bad they are usually cheap and you change them the same way - very simple

    Has anyone replaced the blower motor with a STRONGER motor? I would like a more powerful airflow. Ive posted this question before with no luck....thought I would also ask here.

    Also...is this part vx specific or could one use a motor from a trooper, axiom, etc?

    Not that I've heard. Anything is possible though with enough determination & fabricating skills.

    the worst part is there are only like 4 screws that hold it on - but i would have had to lift the hood TWICE to get it situated - im exhausted just thinking about it

    I feel ya. There are only 2 bolts holding the front brake caliper on ... but it took me an hour last night to change the pads. JLYS ... I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
