Product Details

The Cardone Power Window Motor line focuses on restoring dependable window operation with remanufactured OE-style construction. Part number 42-105 is built to match the original mounting and regulator interface, and it is shipped in the full-up position for applications with auto up/down or anti-pinch logic. This makes it a practical replacement for rear left window motor service on 1992-2000 Chevrolet C/K trucks and Suburban models, 1995-1999 Chevrolet Tahoe, 1992-1999 GMC Suburban and Yukon models, plus select front left and front right applications such as 1990-1991 Buick LeSabre, 1990-1991 Oldsmobile Delta 88, and 1987-1996 Chevrolet Corsica.

This part cross-references Oldsmobile 22063297 for the same application.
