Very easy to get to the motor. Pull top back trim off, the one going across top after back glass up. Then the top sides just pull off. They use snap clips, just pull back towards the center inside to pop them off.

Lubed the metal tracks
I just did some surgery on the door--I've been having problems with the driver's door window working intermittently--and while I was in there I took out the window motor and lubed that up. What I also did though is lube up the metal tracks that push the window up. I'm hoping that this will solve my window problem.

I did some searching for you and the part numbers are different, the electrical connectors look different and it seems that the hole of where the screws go into the motors for mounting are in different locations... I would have to say no. I assume you are asking this because you are thinking of swapping your rear motor to the front door? If this is your thought you are more then welcome to give it a try and please let us know if it works. Reagrdless the motors for the front windows are cheaper then for the rears. Hope this helps.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. If you still have this issue I would pull the regulator and motor out and see if the track is bent. You can A. try and bend it back or B. Get a new one.

It's alright. The window hasn't gone anywhere. I'll try that. I'm not sure if I'll be able to accurately diagnose it but I'll give it a shot. I'm not even sure if they sell window tracks

Rock Auto has them (as well as your local parts store) but Rock auto is a supporting vendor here on the forum.
RockAuto Parts Catalog
Drivers side regulator and motor together in a dorman part number is 748212
passenger side is 748213
You should be able to use those part numbers at any auto parts store and they will get you what you need...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it is the window track itself that may be bent. I think that because I stupidly unbolted it when replacing the door actuator. It would line up with the hole again so once again I stupidly tapped it with a hammer a few times until it aligned close enough to get the bolt through.

Oh I see what you are saying. You need new window tracks as in the felts that go along each side...
So what I think you need is Ford Part #
21537 for drivers side
21536 for passenger side
HOWEVER these are $154ish from the dealership and they may be dealer only part on the account that I cannot find them anywhere els. In which case call up your local truck dismantler and try and find them.
