Picked up the new motor yesterday evening after two attempts for the parts house to get the right one in. FYI, O'rielly's has a part number of 42-21 for this motor. But this part number is also the same for two other motors they carry. Last time I bought one, after two trips to find they'd gotten the wrong on in, I made them order all three then chose the one I needed. So i ended up going thru the same thing with them this time.

So i got the motor home, installed it in the tailgate, and everything works just fine, for now. Time will tell. If this goes south am seriously considering finding a junker burb with a straight barn door body, and swapping the entire body out. I never liked the tailgates anyway. I got a deal I couldn't refuse for this one, and now I regret it, to a point.

So it's operational, we'll see for how long.
