What are the options for a replacement motors- ie: who's swapped in a Camry side window motor? They're different pn#s but I've heard they work. Different gearing maybe?

The power window part numbers are:
1990 4runner rear pn: 85610...........obviously works
1990 4Runner RHS pn: 85710 A, B....heard it works in the tailgate as well
1990 4Runner LHS pn: 85720 A, B....yotatech member BigT says he's used this in his tailgate
1990 Camry RHS pn: 85710 A, B......?
1990 Camry LHS pn: 85720 A, B......?
Corolla appears to be the same as Camry

2000 Camry RHS pn: 85710 F.........?
2000 Camry RHS pn: 85710 E.........?
I'll add more later...

Hey Matt, why not just get a 4runner motor?

 

Well there's a good chance that the back seat door window motors in a camry are used way less than the 4Runner tailgate window motor. Also, as there are 4 power window motors/ Camry vs 1 rear motor/ 4Runner so they go for cheaper if i recall.

There is method to my madness Jay...

 

Most 4Runners have 5 power window motors.

However, almost any Toyota window motor will work, provided its clocked correctly. I have been doing this swap for ages.

 

Ahh makes sence

Shoot Adrian an email though, ask how much he wants for a motor

acsintalan AT hotmail DOT com

He is who I get all my parts (If I buy locally) from. He has a massive shelf stocked full of parts, great prices too

 

Sent him a email.

 

i used driver side 4runner motors for my rear gate! WORKS GREAT

 

I just put a front drivers side motor on my back gate this last weekend it bolted right up and works great. Oh and it came from another 4runner

 

I'm trying to figure out whether the window motors from a Camry should be coming off the drivers of passenger's side. The part numbers would suggest that the motor should come off the passenger's side (see above).

Anyone actually used a Camry window motor in a tailgate? Drivers side or passenger's side??

 

i used one but cant for the life of me remember if it was driver or pass

 

Its the driver's side. The 1989 Camry plug is different than the 4Runner- but its only two wires and shouldn't be hard to change the plug. Haven't installed it yet.
