Replacement window lift motors?

First off, I no longer have the original lift motor to rebuild so suggesting that won't work .

I'm on my 3rd NAPA knock off motor . Its a little rectangular thing with a lifetime warrenty but I'm wearing my door panel clips out .

They ordered a different one that looks like the original - big & cylindrical, even has the DCPD logo, but the gear teeth don't extend far enough out to engage my regulator. A second one ordered to make sure they got the part number right proved the same too.

Anybody got a better source or part number?

I'm tiring of changing them out everytime I change the oil

I could go to the junk yard and find one but I'm not overly excited about rebuilding those little buggers...

KRB not too long ago there was some window motors in this forums classified.
IIRC some were rebuilt. Good luck with it.

I have an O"rlieys autoparts in our area-

They sell the rebuilts ($40-50) and then can order NEW one from the OEM. Get your money back from NAPA and get a new one.
