ASC McLaren Mustang Pull Down Motor Replacement

Mustang Munkey · Post by **Mustang Munkey** » Fri Sep 23, 2016 1:36 am

How involved is it to replace the pull down motor in an 89 Mustang. I am picking my car up tomorrow and it needs a new pull down motor. I plan to buy one from Hank on my way to pick up the car. Wondering if this is something I could install in an hour or so before I start my drive home? Any of you have experience with this?

Thank you,

mark

I am trying to install the pull down motor for my '88 ASC McLaren. Can someone post a picture using a flash so I can see the finished mounted position?

I must say, when they fabricated the hole for the motor, they didn't cut enough material away to easily mount it in place. Especially with that $#@!#$ bar in the way. I can see it mounts easily in place with three washers/nuts onto the screw studs, then simply plug the wire in, but I can't get it in place....

Frustrated.

I am willing to take a picture for you if the 1989 is the same as the 88. Do you know if they are the same, I only have access to my 1989.

Yes, the '89 is identical to the '88 as far as the convertible top is concerned.

thank you for responding and posting a picture.

Is there anyone with an '87 to '90 ASC Mustang that could post a picture of the pull down motor installed in place?

Please!
