HELP!!! Removing/installing wiper motor.

I tried everything I can to remove this farging thing. I started by removing the motor caseing and noticed the coil was fried, as I suspected. I then removed the bracket bolts and removed the nut that holds the motor to the wiper crank deal, I even removed the bolts that attatch the motor to the bracket. But despite all this I can't get the motor to come loose from the wiper push rods or crank assembly. Am I missing something? Do I need to pry a little harder?

Dan,

There are steel clips on the ends of pivots where rods to WSW Transmissions go, on your motor drive.
You can't see them because they face away from you to inside of firewall.
When you have clip affairs off, push rods off pivots. The WSW motor should be free. It takes no prying or leverage after removing clips from pivots.
I hope that this explanation is clear enough for you.

3 clips, 2 you can see on the pivots and 1 you cannot see (on the motor). These clips push off with your finger. Take one off the pivots for practice. When you go to put them back on later tie a piece of thread around the clip so when you drop it you will be able to find it!
