Been surchasing the internet for a rebuild kit and have not found one for it. I have found a lot for early Ford model A. Pictures of the kit look like they will work.
Does anyone know if they will before I buy something I can not use? | | | | | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 | No rebuild kits are available. You can send it to Ficken Wiper Service and he will do it for you at a reasonable price. www.wiperman.com | | | | | Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2008 Posts: 1,321 | As info here is Ficken's web site. http://www.wiperman.com/I rebuilt mine. Be careful with the disassembly. take photos, clean all parts well (pay attention to ports and tubes be sure they are clear/open), cut new gaskets as needed and reassemble. Good luck, Harold
