Removing window motor or regulator assembly when window is stuck closed

[Devils Paw 80]

Just like the title says. I tried searching with no luck. It's the right rear window, so not real critical but it'd be nice to have it working.
I've determined power is getting to the motor so my assumption is that it's dead.
Accessing the three screws holding the motor to the regulator seems impossible because part of the contraption is blocking the top screw.
Thanks for any advice.

Just unbolt regulator I guess? Edit: found this Installation of left rear window regulator and window lift motor FZJ80 - https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/installation-of-left-rear-window-regulator-and-window-lift-motor-fzj80.1290510/

The thread above was quite helpful. It is not necessary to unbolt regulator from window with the back windows, but it is on the front windows.
It's impossible to remove the window motor from the regulator with the window up all the way.

It's a done deal now-sort of. New motor works, window goes down fine but gets stuck in one spot going up. That's probably what killed the motor originally.

I have the same issue with the right rear motor, mind if I ask you where you got the new motor from ?
Thanks......

Rockauto have the OEM (Aisin) fronts but i can't recall having seen the rears. They do have aftermarket options available. Not a huge difference in price between just buying the motor/regulator combination verus just the motor.

If the window is getting stuck going up or down then something is broken, bent, twisted, binding. Could be the rubber glass run is binding from being dried out. If it isn't the rubber glass run then probably need to pull the regulator and motor out again then hook the motor power connector up to the up-down switch connector then run the motor each way to see why it's getting stuck.

Plan is to secure new motor, then dig in.
