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.

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:
SiemensVDO #PM354 $26.99 @ AutoZone
Everco/Four Seasons 35576 (NAPA)

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.

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.
