Wiper motor conversion idea
- Thread starter kennyw
- Start date
About to have to go there. I don’t have instagram. Someone who does, can you get the part number and who/where to order it from?
The part number is in the screenshot
Does that guy make that bracket?
Best I can tell, he traced the original out on cardboard, then layed that on the new motor. Then used that to transfer to aluminum and cut it out.
Interesting, I have a reman unit but it is kinda meh.
I’m still thinking of this. Those Cherokee units are $30-$90, and plentiful. Which is more than I can say for square body units.
Plus, the washer unit would have to be dealt with( it would have to be remedied anyway) as my washer bottle and sprayer were all wrecked long before I owned Chloe. I didn’t like the quart-sized bottle the squares had back then anyway.
At least his proof-of-concept looks like it might work.

88-94 gmt400 washer bottle is bigger and has 12v pump . Drill 1 new hole and bolts in in place of stocker on 80's .
Great information
Bracket is 35 plus 13 shipping. I'm ordering one.
Can the bracket be removed off the stock wiper motor setup? Any of the pics I can find don't really show how it's attached.
Wondering if that may form a basis for swapping other motors in. 1990's P30's used a different wiper motor but apparently used the same controls as squarebodies. Wiper motor to cowl mount is not cast, so cutting and welding to adapt should be pretty simple.
The later Corvette motors have been used for retrofit but that involves some figuring out of wiring as those were controlled via BCM.
Interested in keeping delay.
Surprised they don't include a modified arm to drive the wiper assembly with the wiper bracket.

Just bought mine
When you guys get this done post pictures so the peanut gallery can follow. I haven’t had wipers on my truck in 10+ years.
I’d also love to see follow up info. Every square I’ve had has had a weak wiper motor, I’m interested to see if this newer style is worth the effort.
Same.
Don’t even use that hahaoh another rain-x guy
dry A$$ life style person you are . . . cant get away with out it up here in the north east .
Did the same era jeeps not have delay? I would have thought higher trim levels would have? Presumably with the same mounting pattern?
They all must not have the delay feature. That is kind of odd.
