something at the output shaft to the swing arm broke yesterday
swing arm is intact but bushing etc are missing
want to replace motor-gearbox combo
Monday when things outside are more dried out, i will crawl under and take pictures and 'maybe' remove the motor assembly
would rather not have to splice power wires and make new motor connections, like i had too do, when i replaced the motor in the safari
a few years ago (4)?
But I Can Not understand it for you !

Someone on here swears that the manufacturer sells seconds to LCI, not so. The motors are better than the ones that were used from 1995 to 1999.
You're on the right track and you may or may not have to change out the door switch.

Click For Full-Size Image.
you can see the differences in the motor mounting screw positions and the gearbox design
this why, you have to replace both together, even if one of the old parts is good
at 22yrs age, best to replace both for $200 than just one piece at $80
now everything is new except the controller
the only problem is you don't get a power plug for the motor, but (2) butt splices trimmed and flatten on one end, then sealed with gasket or rubber sealer
makes a water/weather tight connection

Right now I'm getting ready to go over to the lock Smith, see what he can do with the tumblers and keys, in my door lock
Everything works from the inside, but the deadbolt won't lock with the key, and the door latch lock gets stuck and doesn't want to unlock with the key, took ten minutes to get in last night
Have pictures of the and and old gearbox and motor assembly's to post
But I Can Not understand it for you !

Linkage not available for that model
At last I did not find it
Ball wobbles on the shaft, temporary repair, keep popping the clip off
Even after taking the time to make a good grove on the ball to hold the clip
Parts expected Tuesday
Have to wait a few days for dry weather, to install
But I Can Not understand it for you !

Per the manufacturers recommendations:
I replaced my series 32 gearbox/control box (1999 model Series 32) and I bought the entire OEM update kit including the motor/gearbox, control box, fasteners, door switch, and wiring harness. Works like a charm, first time.

but i did get a quick look at things in the daylight
the curved arm has come off the 'ball' at the end of the 'crank'
the crank turns with the motor, but is not connected to the curved arm
I think i can do a 'Yankee' temp repair, to hold the (2) pieces together, and then order a new motor & gear box
tomorrow i'll get some pictures, while attempting my temp repair
if i can get a 'E' clip, or a snap ring clamped around the bottom of 'Ball' and grease everything real good, it might hold for a few days
But I Can Not understand it for you !

The update change out kit is a pain to test the motor. The motor has the leads plugged into the motor and if the steps are in, you have to cut the wires to test the motor. With the old system, there is a splice in the motor leads that you can get to to test the motor.
The bushing are built into the linkage. Maybe all you need is the linkage?

If you change control box, you need to change magnetic switch.
