92 firebird pull down motor

I have a 92 GTA. The pull down motor works sometimes and other times not. I took the motor apart to check it and one of the two brushes are extremely worn. My question is does anyone know where I can get them? The motor has to be late 91 or 92 only nothing else fits.

Re: 92 firebird pull down motor

I had the same problem years ago. I used a brush set from an older BMW Z4 window motor, early Z4 model, that was laying in the trash in my company. Fitted perfect, just had to solder it to the little copper cable. Works perfect until today. I don't know if there are spot-on replacements available...

Arrowhead Electric Co catalogs a huge variety of electric motor brushes. I had a worn-out (Delco) heater fan motor in a Studebaker truck, and they had brushes for it.
