1991 Blower Motor question

[Governator]

Been looking around and can't find the answer. There are two type of blower motors it appears, one with A/C (discontinued) and one without. I prefer to stay with OEM. Rockauto has the Four Season motor w/ AC for sale without the fan only (go figure) but OEM has the fan only w/ AC for sale but no motor.

Anyone install the below No A/C Blower on a A/C FJ80? Any idea what the difference could be?

 

[Governator]

Looking at parts.toyota it doesn't list two types of blower motors, it only list this one below, which is the one carried in stock above. No one has ran into this issue of with or without A/C BS? I though AC was standard on FJ80's.

Wish I could help ya, mine is starting to tick so following to see if you get this figured out.

Go to www.partsouq.com plug in your VIN and it will give you any updated part numbers that you can then try to track down. It may show they are the same as current units or not.

Toyota only lists one blower assembly for my VIN, I am going to stick with 87103-26020 (in stock) and assume the other is some overseas model bull****. I'll let you know how it works.

The -26020 blower motor is for a truck with no AC. I assume you have AC?

Good luck.

What about part # 8713060210, Blower Assembly, heater, front? Would that not be the motor plus fan in one?

 

[Pascoscout]

or try part number 87103-60150 on lexuspartsnow.com. Same part number as the toyota w/AC but shows them in stock.

The part is discontinued. No website is getting it for you.

 

[Mixelplix]

Ok, so I know this is not very useful.. but I swear I replaced mine with a Honda blower motor. (maybe from a civic?)

If I did that, then I got that information from this forum... might help with your searches.

 

[jonheld]

Or pick up a used one from one of the folks parting out 80s in the classifieds.
Or contact the used parts vendors on this forum.

Yep. I ordered it, which went through, but they canceled it today.

So the only option is used if the motor fails?

 

[Pascoscout]

Can the motor be disassembled? From pictures it appears the only difference between AC and no AC motors is the shaft is longer on the AC version.

 

[Governator]

Lools like the four seasons blower motor from rock auto and the OEM blower fan from Toyota combo is the only choice.

Toyota dropped the ball on AC blower motors, all 80's in the states have AC as far as I know.

 

[Pascoscout]

I don't see that you can get the fan/blower combo from toyota either. Even the complete replacement box that is supposed to contain those parts is NLA according the sites I am looking at. Rock auto it is. May see if I can pull the motor apart when I take it out. If the shaft can be removed you may be able to swap it to the motor for no AC trucks. Looks the same to me except the shaft length.

By "dropped the ball", do you mean discontinuing parts on a 24-30 year old vehicle?

Well I found the cause of the noise.

 

[Pascoscout]

how did you access that area? Concerned I have leaves and such in mine too since the truck sits outside a lot

I pulled the glove box out and cross bar. I took out the two clips and all the screws for that bottom plastic cover and just pulled down with my finger. That gave me enough room to Shop-Vac off the front of the heater core. It appears the mice got in there at one point. I had twigs inside the fan blades.

 

[Pascoscout]

Thanks. Will investigate that in mine. There is a ticking sound coming from the fan. Very noticeable at low speed, wondering if I don't have some debris in there.
