my hatch has an aut grabber to close it, and the f***ing thing broke, how much will it be to buy, thanks

 

Type in hatch motor on ebaymotors. I believe there is a company on there that is always selling remanufacturedones for about 60 bucks or 20 for the plastic casing.

 

Try Hawksthirdgenparts.com

 

And search this forum and the Tech/General Engine forum for hatch motor or hatch pull down motor, you'll find tons of info.

 

find thirdgen.org member lonsal... he makes parts for them that commonly go bad. I just bought all of them. They arrived very fast and my motor is as good as new now.

 

shoot lonsal an email.... he has alll the parts for the pull down latch assembly. Top-Down Solutions

 

or, do like i did for a friend of mine, remove it. You have to reset the latch placement and fasten it on the rails, but it's worth the little bit of trouble to take it out than to keep replacing parts. takes an hour or so, costs maybe 10-15 bucks, and you'll be ready to rock. If you need more info on how to do it, drop me a pm or post another message.

 

$50-60

 

costs us cheap cause we used lil c clamps and JB weld to hold the assembly on the rails.just gotta really make sure that bad boy is in place right
