I think there is an attached box which is the timer ?? but I think it was wired directly to the replacement switch, but it been awhile since I added that setup to a truck as I have a friend that brings me all his 73-79 trucks for work but like I said its been a few years and I have worked on hundreds of other cars/trucks since..

Well LMC sells the standard switch for $14.99 and the switch for delay wipers at $44.99. Seems like the cost difference might include the regulator box. They don't mention it separately anywhere that I see.

just make sure you double check on that one as now that I think about it I think I remember there that seperate short harness with a plug attaching the 2 as "White 97xlt stated , but my friend always brought that conversion to me as a unit.. this is an easy job and shouldnt take you more that 20mins to do as long as the control box is included with the switch..

Too bad LMC doesn't show a picture.... Oh well, there are plenty of other places to buy parts too.
Such as e-bay for example... watching one will try to pick it up cheap.
and there is a ton of them currently on Ebay which is where I borrowed the photo from....

I've read some people just grab the switch and delay box from the 1980-1991 trucks. Supposedly it works but you have to plug your washer pump connector in upside down after the swap. ? I actually bought 2 set ups from late 80s truck but have not had the time to try them out yet on my 1976 and 1977 so I can't verify this works but the connector is the same. Try a search and you'll find several threads stating this.
