Has anyone had occasion to change out the motor which raises/lowers the
convertible top on a '94 LeBaron? It drives an attached hydraulic pump which
does the actual work. I'd rather not accidentally fill the trunk with
hydraulic fluid while changing it if there's a way to do this right. And are
there any tricks necessary to bleed the system after replacement or is it
self bleeding? My car manual talks at length about engines and such, but no
mention is made of the convertible top systems.

Also, has anyone tried to change the brushes in this motor? Chrysler
naturally wants big bucks for a new unit. They seem to think my old LeBaron
is a Mercedes now!

Thanks...
