    These seem to be a bit scarce, so you may want to take a deep, calming breath before you call for the price....Ford NOS Wiper Motors - C2OZ-17508-C - C&G Ford Parts

    Or, consider having yours rebuilt - might be cheaper.... http://www.wiperworks.us/

    Yes they are scarce and that is not "exactly" like the one I just took out, However, just for grins, I called and they are sold out but the gentleman did tell me that they were $180 - - - OUCH

    Looks like I'm gonna have to troll Ebay or some Ford Forums and keep my fingers crossed. I do, however, have a good friend that can fix mine, if it comes to that. Sure would like to find an OEM and get it over with - - - ?wait? that's not the way Fffffffurds work out is it (?Charlie?)

    Thanks Roger,

    You might call the place in TN and see what they charge to make your's like new? It's that second link.

    Roger, a quick update for you. I emailed WiperWorks and a feller named Danny Tate replied and after swapping several emails and a pic of my old motor, he said that he had a rebuilt one that would work. So I have sent him a check and he is sending me the motor. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will just be a bolt on application because that's all I am "capable" of doing at the moment. He did say that if it didn't work just return it and he would refund my money. All of this is happening on the old fashion way of doing business called "trust" so I'll keep you updated on the progress. Thanks again for the link.

    Update: the feller at WiperWorks sent me the motor and it didn't even look the same much less could it possibly work or even adapt. I even sent him a pic but he still sent the wrong motor. The drive mechanism on mine is a female connection (on the left) and the drive mechanism on the one he sent was a male (on the right)- - - ?????

    So the bottomline is, I have returned the motor to him via UPS ($26 OUCH) and have sent mine to my friend that might be able to rebuild it for me. (via UPS $26-double OUCH) Now, if I just get my money returned this project will only cost 3X what it should have.

    Looks to me that both motors are the same, yours needed to be taken off the mount.

    They weren't the same at all - - - - if you will notice the shaft that sticks thru the Mount even taking the Mount off would still have left me with a female shaft. Does this help explain what I'm trying say?

    It does, but do you have the male end on your wiper assembly?

    Just out of curiosity, what did the threaded shaft hook to?

    If I"m understanding you correctly the shaft coming out of the firewall went into the female portion of the motor and mated up with some square shoulders on each and then there was a screw that tightened down on the threaded part of the shaft. Then there are three 5/16"? bolts that hold the mount to the firewall.

    Here's a pic of the other side and the threads on the end of the shaft are accessible under the small round cover.

    I'm just having a hard time grasping it, it seems odd to me that Ford would make one female and one male.

    Isn't that where little wiper motors come from?
