Blower motor question...
I'm trying to figure out where I might find a suitable 12v replacement blower motor for the heater on my 48.
I have it pictured below. It's stamped "Leece Neville". Any ideas where I can find a new one.

Good to hear. They also should have a blower, if you need one.

I'm surprised to see three wires going to the motor? Does your truck have a Magic Air heater?
These are some common replacement 12v motors:

There are actually four wires. I somehow managed to take two shots at an angle that blocks out one of the wires.

So is it a reversible motor? It sounds like it is, they run in reverse for defroster mode?

So, at the rate I'm going, it looks like I'll have my heater put back together just in time for the warm weather.
I found a motor for the fan. I ended up ordering a MEI 3354 from ryder.
Blower Motor, 3354, Airsource - Ryder Fleet Products
It works great. I did have to shorten the shaft, since it was just slightly too long.
I've finished cleaning/painting the parts, and almost have everything reassembled.
The only issue I have left is that I don't know what I should do for heater controls. There are currently no existing controls in the cab. The fan is reversable, so I need to be able to switch between defrost and heat. I also need a control to close and open the defrost.
I'm open for any suggestions.

Is the old motor 6V & does it work ? How long is the motor & is the shaft 5/16 ? Might want to try the heater control panel from a '48-'50 fresh air heater . It has the 2 sp blower motor switch slow ( S) & fast ( F ) defrost , temp & air .Let me know aboutt he motor . I may be interested . Thanks , Denny

The old motor is 6v. I wasn't able to get it to work. It's a 1/4" shaft. I can measure the rest if you are interested in it.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will look into that.
