Yes it is, pretty easy swap - https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...ml#post7900623

To the OP, I'm not sure how to replace the cable/motor assembly.....sorry

I know this is for a Supercrew F150, but I bet if you did the same thing it would free up the motor.

Another back window motor failure

Back window would not shut when I got home the other night. [This about a week after the driver door actuator quit working (electric locks) and a month now after the second radiator replacment at 82,000 miles - but I digress.]

Could hear the motor working but the window would not budge on its own. I took some q-tips and teflon lubricant to try and clean the rail out - was able to move the window a few more inches and could not improve it any more. I needed to shut the window, with the rain coming, so I cut the cable and shut the window.

Now, I'm trying to determine whether to attempt to repair myself. Do I need to remove the back seat and/or back window to access? I dug into the driver door last weekend to work on the actuator but I chickened out as I couldn't find a clear instruction on removing the linkages from the door lock assembly.

Any thoughts or suggestions are very welcome. I've given Ford $2600 in the last 1-1/2 years for the radiator, I can't keep giving them this kind of money.

I have had good luck with a cable lube on the window. (motorcycle shop) Mine was almost stuck when I bought it. Freed up and actually got better as I used it. But will stiffen up over time. Lube to the window has become part of truck maintenance now. Reading all this I now know there will be a physical failure in my future someday. Til then I will keep the lube on.

Okay, I tackled the actuator yesterday - success! Basically $50 for the actuator and a couple of trial & error assemblies needing re-done.

Maybe next weekend the sliding window motor
