Where can I get one that will last more than a few hours to a few months? I am sick of changing that thing

And just to clarify, you mean the wiper motor, not the washer motor correct?

Yes sir the wiper motor, my dad bought this truck new, and the original lasted until about 2003, since I have been through 4, two worked for a few months one for only a few minutes and the other for a year or more, I disassembled the entire mechanism and cleaned and lubed it, have replaced the switch, and it still went out again!!!! I found the thread with all of the test procedures I just need to pull it and test it I guess. Is there a source for new or quality remans? the ones I have been getting are cardone and I am not impressed. It's a ***** of a job!!
