Best option is to get one from Autozone. Don't skimp, because you don't want to do it twice. The motors are actually better and have a lifetime warranty. They're much faster.

Right here, you can buy them for $10. I've got 2 from this place and installed them a LONG time ago and not had a single problem out of them. They're the same speed as the factory ones were when they ran good. I compared it to the factory one when I got it out, and they're identical. The new one even comes with rivets or bolts/nuts, whichever you choose to secure it in with. I was doubtful at first too, but they're great.

I don't have the part number, just go to Autozone or call them and ask for it. I believe they only offer one and I think its for 93-02 models. I think they're only $50, but have a lifetime warranty.

I purchased one off Ebay before and it sucked. It was slower than the good original one on the other window.

You must have got a shitty one, haha. Mine's just as fast as the originals and no problems at all.

Suit yourself. Just trying the help. If you search in the correct section on here, you will find tons of write-ups and threads mentioning the Autozone window motor. You can't go wrong.

As far as one from Ebay, well, you take a risk. Why go through the headache of trying to save a few bucks and possibly getting a shitty unit? Then if it is a bad part, you have to remove it, ship it back, wait for another one, and reinstall. That is a lot of work.

just replaced my Drivers side with one from o'reileys and it works great. it's a little faster than the factory ones, but not much, and shbox has a write up on chaning them out without having to worry about taking the regulator spring out. unless it bothers you to have 3 holes in a non visable spot
