Sunstar 32YE Step Motor Replacement Substitution?

I read somewhere that the Dorman 742-251 power window motor will work as a kwikee step replacement motor. Can anyone confirm or deny?

Thanks in advance!

Greg

I'm 2,000 miles East or I'd say stop by and I'll give you my old one. My pot-metal gear housing broke, motor still good. I replaced everything while under there.

Has your old motor got an ID sticker still attached? if so, look up the number for a cross-over to different motors.

I hate to be the guy to not answer your question, but why when the exact Kwikee repacement motor is only $20?

You can't possibly save any relevant money given the labor to install. I bought a GMX 300-1457 for $18.99 in 2023. It worked so well I bought a 2nd one that I keep as a spare.

Note: Verify your exact model based on model of your steps. Kwikee is one of those companies that actually answers the damn phone
