I finally had to chance to finish up the driver’s window motor conversion last weekend. The actual conversion to the Taurus motor on the driver’s side went really fast. However, try to get the window to go all the way down and get everything aligned seemed very time consuming and tedious compared to the passenger window.
Also, when I ordered the Ford Taurus motors from O’Reilly’s Auto Parts they each arrived with slightly different mounting systems - the same bolt pattern but just different backs. (I will try and post a few pics to show the difference). I slightly modified the back of the Taurus motor mount on my driver’s side window to get a more complete gear mesh. The passenger’s side meshed nicely from the get go.
Once again, I am very pleased with the conversion and I would highly recommend it to anyone with their stock window motors.
