I have a 97 35ss and the hatch actuator is dead I am looking for a motor replacement if possible it is a Thompson actuator if anyone knows where I can find one if not I will need to replace the entire actuator assembly I was turned onto a place but since my motor died while retracted I don't know the length can somebody help with this?

I just answered this same question on another thread, I tell you where I got mine and my buddy got his, we just bought Thompson actuators from a guy on E-bay. His user name is "powerboatstuff" they are used but are a good deal, I got 2 like brand new ones for $200.00 That beats paying $600.00 for 2 of them, mine were 18" stroke. Hope this helps.
