Dodge Repair: windshield wiper motor replacement 1998 Voyager SE 3.3L, windshield wiper motor, 1998 plymouth voyager

Question
I'm trying to replace the windshield wiper motor on a 1998 Plymouth Voyager SE 3.3L.  I have removed the cowl cover and disconnected the motor from the linkage arms.  However, I can't get the motor out from under the mount
plate.  And even though I've removed all the bolts that hold the plate, it still won't budge.  Can you help?
Thanks.
