Wiper conversion.....

The orginal vacumm motor was DOA when I got the truck cab and since the motor is going to be turbo charged it was not an option. So what to do? Variable speed conversion kit are $$$$ so I decided to home brew it.... well 35 hours later I it ready to test under electrical power.

Parts

wiper arms and pivot points - hyundai pony
linkage with bellcrank - late 80's lumina
wiper motor - 90 GMC full size truck
Mounting bracket - custom made

Work involved heavily modifing the wiper post crank arm, drive rods (except the motor driven rod
) motor crank arm, the bell crank is untouched.
