Does anyone know if they are the same?
They certainly look the same.

The bottom gear section looks like it may mount differently but the motors themselves look the same...

See i tried that as that is what i did with a 480 motor when i had my blueline, however when i came to use a 440 motor on my 3 door but the shaft and worm gear is bigger on my 3 door motor.

:(

When I refurbed the motors on mine, I stripped the armatures out the casing, might be an option if you get really stuck?

Theres a knack to getting the armature back in, I found wrapping it in a J cloth made the job really easy!
