Re: IML: Part # needed for 68 (how about a '61) window motor

["jsadowski" <jsadowski@xxxxxxx>]

Just for clarification on the 60-63 window motors. They are not EXACTLY the 
same, but will interchange provided you use the drive sleeve that comes with 
that motor. The reason being is that the motor output shafts vary slightly 
in length. I discovered this fact when I replaced a motor on my 60 with one 
from a 62 & after operating the window a couple of times, the shaft would 
spin free. Using the rubber piece from the 62 made the fit snug. You will 
notice that some of the rubber sleeves have metal ends & others nylon.
