Blower motor replacement?

New member here, and new F150 owner. Just bought a 96 F150 standard cab w/ 344k miles on it, and it currently does not blow air through any of the vents (or floor/dash). I'm assuming that the blower motor has died, because the compressor still kicks on when I switch the system to A/C. Can someone give me a general idea of where I'll find the old blower motor so I can stick a new one in there?

Also, is this the only part I need? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/92-93...spagenameZWD1V

Thanks in advance!

The motor and the wheel are probably sold separately as service parts. I'd replace both. If you buy a used part it will likely be sold as the assembly (as shown in your ebay link). I believe the wheel is held onto the d-shaft by a small clip, too. With that many miles the motor is very likely completely worn out.

(By the way, that one shown on ebay looks like a paperweight to me - it's in very poor shape.)

Motors are available at most part stores. Prices range from $35-$80. Look on the firewall on the passenger side. Pic of motor here; http://www.racepages.com/parts/blowe...ford/f150.html
Look for the round cylinder of the motor body. It's not all that hard a job to DIY.
