I finished installing the new motor. It was a fight with the three bolts. Could not get the bolts and holes to align.
I ended up cutting the heads off two long bolts threaded into the motor and pushing them through the holes from behind to get the third bolt installed first. Then unscrewed the dummy bolts one at a time to fit the correct bolts. Also had to enlarge the three existing holes to 3/4" diameter to have some room.
I only replaced the motor, not the Regulator, so I did not drill out the 4 rivets.
Everything worked fine once The battery was reconnected.
Thanks all for your help. Next job is the door Lock Actuator but I am beat today.
