Used Wiper motors

[dflowers]

I have found a guy locally that has a bunch of used wiper motors. He is charging me $20 each for them, which I am ok with, but does anybody have any suggestions for motors from certain make and model of vehicle? I am going to meet him in about two hours to pick one out. It's kind of late in the season, but I am going to try and work on a stirring witch.

I always have luck with wiper motors from older GMs, no particular model preference.

20 bucks for a used wiper motor is a ripoff. you can get them new from www.monsterguts.com (http://www.monsterguts.com) for 15 ea. I've never heard of junkyard selling used ones for more than 5 bucks ea.

Thanks Dr. M, I had no idea what they went for, but it seems Monster guts is out of them for this year. Any other recommendations on where I can pick one up for cheap?

[Dr Morbius]

Don't know if he still has them, but worth a PM to him to find out..

Yeah 20 bucks is way too high. Robs a good guy. Definately shoot him a PM.

thanks, just sent him a pm

His warehouse got flooded, that is why he is out of them.

You could always offer your local guy less than he is asking, especially if you are willing to buy a couple. Salvage yards around here price parts expecting to dicker.

Tell him what you are planning to do with them you might find he'll pass em along for free. I got 5 wiper motors "donated" from the wreckers because the owner liked the idea that they were going to be used to entertain the children.

I bought one from these people. ( allelectronics.com) I was informed on here that there were people having some problems with them. I haven't gotten mine yet so I don't have anything to add. You might check out my thread about asking for wiper help.

go to a junk yard like pick a part or something

[lowdwnrob]

I can get as many as anyone needs. dflowers has already been shipped.

That is correct, sorry I did not update this thread. It's been a bit busy at the fire department the last couple of days. I bought two of them and they are in transit. Thanks, Rob

go to a junk yard

My junk yard charged $25 for a wiper motor. I can get the new for less than that. I told them so, and walked out.

but sometimes you can get them for free
