Default Replacing a blower motor

I need to replace my blower motor. I searched and found a video on how to replace one on a Ram 1500. Is it the same on Daks? Undo three screws, unplug, rescrew three screws, plug in? That about it?

That is exactly what it is, I took mine off to clean it, and lube it. Mine would/still does have a squeak in a bearing on it.

you will need a stuby screwdriver though, that back screw is tough.

How much was your replacement blower?

I found one that was $74 with shipping. There were some that were a little cheaper, like in the 50's. Mine squeaks like crazy. I can turn it on and it'll be fine for 30 seconds then start making racket.
