np229 shift actuator motor

[Cliff E]

Where can I find a vacuum shift motor for a 88 Grand Wagoonner, everywhere I look parts are discontinued and unable to find any after market replacements.

Welcome to the madness. That is a real booger to find new. I consider it made of unobtanium. It is not a motor but a dual diaphragm vacuum push/pull device for shifting in and out of 4wd.

When getting a used one, I recommend you have the seller vacuum test it before sending money.

Clearly. I love it when people don't believe me. I really don't give a ratsass what Wheeler Dealers did... This has not been available as a new part for a few years now. Even longer as a new Jeep part. Crown used to make them. Not saying it is impossible. You might get lucky if you search long and deep but I am back recommending a search for a working used one.

Good luck Cliff!

Well i guess that brand new episode of wheeler dealers got ahold of a brand new 3 year discontinued part somewhere.. Oh well

Sometimes you get lucky and find stuff. In May, I found a source that located 3 roller bearings for the QuadraTrac adapter that haven't been produced in many years. In 20012 I found one in the original AMC box on eBay. It just depends on how much effort you want to put into the search.

Will these fit on a 89GW? Also what kind of metalwork is needed if so?
