Rear Suburban Window Motors

[greguw]

Hey Guys , I was just getting into assembling my rear tailgate , I picked up a reconditioned Cardon ... its a terd ... the old factory ac delco works better .
I had to remove the regulator and re-clock the two arms and I also repreloaded the deadly spring ... was not to bad .
Cardon sucked ... had no power and over heated ...
Beside going manual are there any other options ... dose AC Delco still sell sell this motor and if any one has the part number that would be great ?

Thanks guys

Thanks for the number buddy !

I found factory new AC Delco for 59 bucks and thats new ... listed for 195 ... thats a deal its cheaper than that piece of crap Cardon .

Thanks

Got mine ... Plus a back up for the 59 bucks for factory its well worth the price , came complete with gear clutch that drives the regulator .
Way better then the rebuilds that are out there and 20 bucks cheaper with free ship .

how much did you wind the spring up when you put yours back together? also did you have any marks to retime the regulator? thanks

[greguw]

Some one had mine apart ... the spring just fell apart plus it was out of allinement . There should be a line mark in the center of the regulator and both of the arms will also have line on the them .
Just line up all the lines .... make sure your spring is loaded with the arms the correct way ... should load the arms up .
The spring helps push the window up . I just used a pair of vise grips and a pair of heavy leather gloves ... just incase ... think guys call it the spring of death ...LOL

Its not that bad .

you dont have any pics of the lines do you. mine dont line up with the center lines.

Sorry buddy the window is all reassembled ... they are very light marks like a scribe .

[greguw]

I have been to carlisle a few times ... I use to allways leave with a new project . My new Suburban project has been keeping me pretty busy and its kind of like a scared straight program right now ... don't need any more projects right now ... LOL
