73-80 clip swapped onto 81-91 truck wiper questions

[4x4blaze]

Hey guys, I have a question for anyone who has gone from a square eye to round eye clip conversion. What exactly do I need to get/swap in order for the 80's wipers to work with the 79 clip?

Found a very informative article here

https://www.gmsquarebody.com/thread...0-87-cab-frame-square-eye-to-round-eye.12882/

But unfortunately many of the pictures that would really help explain some things are missing. So I'm sort of confused here. If any of you guys could better explain this to me it would be greatly appreciated! I also have a 77 parts truck that I can steal parts off of. Just sort of confused about exactly what I need to steal.

Thanks!!

They mount in the same location, the only real difference is the length of the stalk that you attach the wipers to.

Grab all the wiper parts. Linkage, wiper stubs, motor. The round eye hood sits above the wipers, so they need to sit a lot lower than the 80's ones do.
