    I need to find a new motor and gear box as pictured. The mounting bolts need to be as shown.

    Thanks for the help!

    Given the huge number of possibilities-can we ***ume you have done some work yourself on this?

    You've searched on Google for Bosch power window motors? Entered all the numbers on a Google search? Tried your local auto parts place? Called Rock Auto or some other large national suppliers? Give us some more information, please

    The drivers lift motor on my 63 BelAir recently would not raise the window without help. Could not find an exact replacement locally. Went to Bumper to Bumper Auto Parts an bought a Dorman universal motor for $40 that worked.

    Thanks for the help. I have been working on this for 3 weeks with the window out. The auto is a 52 Ford Sedan Delivery. My Son and I have web crawled over and over with no luck. It is after market bosh with many gear boxes. I will try the Dorman. Thank You

    JHTDON, the power window kit on my 63 BelAir utilized Ford motors. I could have bought one off eBay but couldn't find one locally. Besides I thought $40 was a good price for a lift motor.

    The $40 Dorman part I referenced is the gear box and the motor.

    Dude don't give up. There are so many options. Contact a big supply house and ask them to cross reference your number. We know your part was made in Mexico-so I'd bet it was a US rather than EU part. The 04 98 is probably a mfg date so you are likely looking for '90's vehicles. You could also contact Bosch-www.Bosch.us and ask them for help on cars this was made for. Keep hunting

    No ID on application. The Amazon item had a slightly different gear box, should have been bought. Decided to wait for restock. Cheers all for the help.

    It looks very similar to the Ford window motors I have replaced. Most of them are basically the same except for the power connector.

    Bosch probably only manufactures the motor. The gear box is another manufacturer. The Dorman motor/gear box I referenced has it's own connector. All you have to do is splice it into your existing wiring.
    Another option if your willing to wait is go to eBay and search Ford power window motors.
