Review on πŸ”Œ Dorman Rear Passenger Side Power Window Motor and Regulator Assembly 741-579 for Cadillac, Chevrolet, GMC Models (OE FIX) - Black by Thimothy Purnell

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Typical Dorman best in parts

TLDR: Either buy factory or cheapest you can find, all aftermarkets are equal. I installed this in my 2001 Suburban left hand liftgate. I took out the old one, put in the new one, and the top bolts didn't match my truck. The flange on the stud is too large to fit through the door to hang the unit properly. They will work if you just screw them on from the front, but that's not how it should be installed. Luckily the threads stayed the same and I replaced my original hardware. My family and extended family have several of these old suburbs/Tahoes and I've modified a few of them. This is the first time I encounter this problem, but it's a minor inconvenience. I've played with the clamps a few times just to be sure, but the operation is a little suspicious. It rises and falls quickly, but at the very bottom you can hear a cable jamming in the block and stopping about 1/16 inch before fully inserting into the door. Windows rarely roll up so I'll take a chance on it working, but that didn't inspire confidence in choosing a power window. Dorman or whatever the latest Chinese fake Revain or Rockauto is, just buy the cheapest, they're all the same If you can't pay money for a factory part, get the cheapest you can find.

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Nothing here
