I called one of the numbers that you listed and they gave me this part number "F2HZ-17508-A"

As original: D4AZ-17508-A .. Wiper Motor-Use with Electric Wipers (Motorcraft WM-353) / 1974/77 LN600/900 & 1974/78 LTD/Grand Marquis / Replaced

D4AZ-17508-A was replaced in 1977 by D7AZ-17508-A which was replaced in 1992 by F2HZ-17508-A which was replaced in 1995 by F5HZ-17508-B (Motorcraft WM-487) which has now been obsoleted.

There are no prices listed for any of these wiper motors on FoMoCo's website, as all are 'too old.' Obsolete parts prices can vary wildly from one source to another.

NOS: I located (4) D4AZ-17508-A & (5) D7AZ-17508-A / No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has F2HZ-17508-A or F5HZ-17508-B

You can do the same thing, in fact everyone can. There are 2 websites available to the general public to search for parts.

All you need is the Ford part number, then sign on to (1) PartsVoice.com, register (it's free), select Ford...then type the part number into the box.

(2) rearcounter.com doesn't require any registration, just sign on and type away. But rearcounter only has a few sources listed, none of which are FoMoCo dealers.

PartsVoice has 100's of sources, as about 30% of the FoMoCo dealers are also listed besides the obsolete parts vendors.

There's a 3rd website, but it's only available to FoMoCo dealers...and the 'chosen' few.
