Dorman 742-251 Power Window Lift Motor Compatible with Select Models

Works great on my 95 Ford F150

Fit and worked as expected.

Works smooth in my 93 f150 passenger door window.

Installed left and right in a 1991 Bronco, this description should be good for at least ‘88-‘91.Side note, DO NOT USE THE KNOCKOFF FOR TAILGATE MOTOR. That install is hard enough in perfect conditions, splurge for the OEM or remanufactured OEM.As noted in other comments, the mount holes do not line up properly. Do NOT modify the door holes as you are more likely to mess with the gear alignment. The top and bottom holes line up perfectly, leaving the forward most hole off-allignment. If you do use this motor just leave the forward most hole empty. I reused the original screws as the supplied screws look significantly larger.To begin, get the window into the full up position and use a few long pieces of duct tape to tape from the inside to the outside over the door top to hold the window up. Remove the three screws 5/16”, the forward hole requires an open end wrench and a driver or extended socket for the other two. Reach your arm through either the square hole above the motor or remove the speaker and use that hole. Hold the motor in place before removing the third screw. After removing all screws, you might need to pry a little with a screw driver if it’s stuck to the door. Then work the motor out through the hole the cables go through.Select the correct Dorman cable, (I plugged in both ends) at least plug in the motor end, then work the new motor into the hole.Line up and start the top hole screw (hold the motor in place with your hand through either the square hole above the motor or the speaker hole) make sure the bottom hole is lined up. You probably need to bump the motor (quickly push the window button) to get the gears to line up. Once you’re confident the gears are lined up, tighten the two screws. After fully tight, remove the tape, bump the motor down to where you can see the rail.Now is a good time to clean the rail with a wire brush, rag, 409, ANYTHING, if you have grease then smear it on the rail. At the very least, spray the rail with PB Blaster or WD40, though grease will stay longer. While you’re in there squirt all other moving parts with some WD-40 or Blaster, then button the door back together.I don’t have the product number, but you can order a kit of plastic fasteners to replace all those broken, 30-year-old door panel fasteners. Now is a good time to do that...

I'm using this for my 1995 Ford Bronco. When I did the search I didn't notice that Amazon recommends both 742-250 and 742-251 for the drivers side window.I spent to hot days trying to make it work, with my arm shoved into a small opening in the door up to the elbow. A very frustrating situation. Then I set the new motor down next to the old. That's when I realized I had the passenger side motor (they are different). I went back did the search again and found the 742-251 and ordered it. In both case they got the motor to me one day. So I can't fault them on that. And needless to say the new motor went in, in about ten minutes. Crazy, but very happy, eventually. I called Amazon customer service, not about the return, that's easy with Amazon. I called them to alert them about the situation with the part numbers and their search algorithms. They say they'll do something about it... BUT, be careful. And if your part doesn't seem to fit. Recheck your search. The first time I was sure I'd gotten it right only to find I had bad info.The motor itself works very well now that it's installed. Quiet and smooth. They include new wiring. I assume that's incase you damage a connector getting the old motor out.I would buy again. But I'd be more careful. And if things seemed wrong I'd check sooner. Good Luck!

This did not last six months and it stopped working. I tried to return it, but it was past the Amazon return Time frame. I contacted the manufacturer to return it to them and they would not accept the return and warranty it. They said I would have to go through Amazon. The manufacturer warranty was one year, but nobody would help me. I would never buy this again.

Well, when I bought the motor for the driver's door of my Bronco I also got this one for my passenger's door or tailgate, whichever failed first. It ended up being the Tailgate. Installing it was a pain because the tailgate can be hard to work on if you don't remove the glass (I wasn't home and had nowhere to place the glass), and I actually had to cut part of the nylon webbing on the head of the motor in order to make it fit, which I might or not have avoided if I flipped it. Only 2 out of the 3 bolts lined up, the 3rd one would require some drilling, but it's doable. I added some pictures of the cuts as a guide for any other Bronco owners, so far it's been 7 months and I haven't had any problems with this. I also had to splice and join the connector for a cleaner install. After all was said and done I once again have a working tailgate glass, but this motor is a little smaller and less powerful than the OEM part, just don't fool too much with it and it will last, of course, since you already got in there, take the time to lube all the moving parts of the mechanism, and the rubber in the weather stripping. These little motors are durable, the one in my driver side door (see my review here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R2V2SM3LBGXKLS/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B000C11JSE ) already has almost 5 years in there and works great.As already stated, this one will work on some Fords or in my case, in my Bronco's passenger door or tailgate (with some mods), the one for your driver side window is this one: Dorman 742-250 Window Lift Motor

It works but you can only get 2 bolts and not the original 3 to fit. Center hole is not in the correct position. 1992 f-250
