Reply to "Have Vader window lifts? READ THIS"

I had this happen several years ago and when I spoke to Rick, he gave me the replacement part numbers, Cardone 82-383 and 82-382. After replacing both motors they worked fine until a couple of weeks ago, when the passenger window starting going up in a slow jerky manner. After I removed the motor and inspected the gear the failure was different than the original motors and can be fixed easily (cheaply). If you have this type of motor there are 3 plastic gear plugs inside that flatten and allow the gear to slip under load. You can buy replacement plugs, Dorman 74410, for $10 at Oriellys, $6 on Rock Auto and various other places. I can not speak to the motor Larry posted a picture of, since it is different than the Cardone motors, but if they have the plastic plugs under the metal gear they should be able to be fixed in the same manner.
