I dont quite understand the origional post. The pictures listed for the "New" matching motor do not jive with the part numbers listed. If you go on-line to Napa or Dorman the Ford Tarus parts for the model years you listed do not look like the new part you said you ordered. In fact if you order the Tarus part, the electronics have a vent hole that is not sealed (not good in water under the rig), and the body is fatter than the origional so your not gonna get a great fit. I also verified this by pulling three motors off Ford Taruses at pick and pull. They all match the Napa Pictures for Tarus parts you listed but do not match the "new" picture in your photos.

So what gives? What part did you really order? Post a link to auto parts store picture that looks anything like your photo.
The one that does appear to be the match in the 1992 Lincoln Contential right rear window lifter. But good luck trying to get that one out of the rear door at a pick-in-pull. I just dont understand why you think Tarus is a match......see link above.
Gferris I can understand your confusion. Maybe dwestbrook will post the new photos and information in a separate thread with as title of Kwikee motor replacement for stairs built in 2005.
Kwikee changed their set up. My replacement parts were for the older steps manufactured around 1995. dwestbrook part numbers are for the newer steps. This helps the people with problems with the step motors that did not match my motors. Before the posting from dwestbrook they were having to purchase repair kits for the steps that had to be over $200. Thanks again dwestbrook for doing the research and finding the motors that work with the new step configuratons.
