MOST COMPLETE REBUILD KIT AVAILABLE FOR 1988-1996 CORVETTE


This is it! This is the kit that you want to do a heavy-duty rebuild on your 1988-1996 Chevrolet Corvette headlight motor.Unlike other kits, this kit containsallof the parts and lubricants needed to do the job right the first timeand the last time!
The three replacement lifetime torque pins are made of virtuallyindestructibleDelrin that willNEVERdistort and crumble into micro-plastic bits like the originals or the cheap injectionmolded,and low-grade plastic bushings sold by others. This is not just a salespitch;I have actually rebuilt hundreds of these motors over the last twelve years using this rebuild kit withZEROfailures due to the gear or Delrin bushings. Why pay more for a kit with an inferior quality aftermarket gear or a ridiculously heavy brass gear when often the OE gear is still in good condition and better quality than all of the plastic replacements available today. The last few pictures above and below are examples of the low-quality of aftermarket gears and bushings that are being sold by others. Don't say I didn't warn you!
This kit also includes a package (1/4 oz) of the same high quality OEM grease that I use when rebuilding headlight motors for my customers. This is the correct grease for this application and will lubricate, preserve, and condition your OEM nylon gear. It is the same grease that was originally used when your headlight motor was manufactured. No other sellers include this OEM grease. NOTE: Lithium and petroleum based grease is WRONG for this application!
This 1988-1996 Chevrolet Corvette specific kit also includes the parts needed to rebuild the actuator linkages and the headlight pivot bearings which are highly likely in need of replacement due to age or due to wear ifyourcar is over 75k miles. This is the only place you can by this kit with the linkage bushings.
*NOTE: This kit does not include a new gear becausequite oftenthe original nylon gear is still in good shape and can be cleaned up and re-used as long as your motor is original and has not been previously repaired with an inferior aftermarket plastic gear kit. Deterioration of the three torque pins inside the gear is usually what causes the gear to slip on the drive shaft. I rebuild hundreds of these motors every year so I would know.Don't waste your money on a new nylon gear (that may be inferior to OEM) if you do not need it.
If you do require or just prefer a kit with a new gear, I highly recommend a new lightweight CNC machined hard anodized aluminum gear kit available in my eBay store under the category for "Corvette headlight motors".
Each kit repairs one (1) headlight motor left or right side. If you need to repair both headlights, then please select a quantity of two (2) items.

If your headlight motor runs but does not open the headlight, opens or closes the headlight partially, or keeps running with a clunking noise after it has opened or closed then this kit is what you need.Most headlight motors fail because of the cheap plastic gear pins that GM put in these motors. The electrical part of the motor typically does not fail.

(Exactly the right amount to coat the gear teeth).1- New laser cut side cover gasket.1- Actuator shaft/headlight pivot bearing small1- Actuator shaft/headlight pivot bearing large2- Actuator linkage bushings1- Spring pin1- Hard Copy of detailed instructions.
If this kit does not solve your problem or you run into trouble you can contact me,and I will be happy to apply the cost of this kit towards my headlight motor rebuild service. NO OTHER SELLER ON EBAY CAN OFFER THIS TO YOU!
Detailed instructions are now included. The instructions are for the process to rebuild the motor. The replacement of the actuator bushing is not covered but is pretty straight forward for any reasonably competentmechanic.Ships same day if ordered weekdays before 12pm eastern time.
You could buy an incomplete, questionable quality, plastic gear kit from a huge retailer that sells thousands of auto parts per day and has no idea what they are selling, or you can buy this complete, well thought out gear kit from a knowledgeable, helpful carenthusiast! I have been selling rebuilt headlight motors and these do it yourself repair kits here on eBay since 2010, longer than any of my major competitors and with much better customer service and higher feedback ratings.You CANNOT buy thishigh-qualitykit anywhere else but here!Choose wisely my friends!
WARNING! If you are thinking of replacing your original equipment motors with the Chinese replacementmotors,then you may want to think again. The quality of these motorsisverylow,and most do not use stainless steelhardware,so they rust solid within a few years. The internal parts do not interchange with OEM motors. I have received these motors as core returns for my rebuild service and they typically cannot be rebuiltdueto poor quality.
Thanks for looking!
