electric wipers

I had to remove my glovebox /ashtray/and speaker grill . Plus pull all the AC duct out . BUT I FIXED THE DARN THING !!!!! WOOOHOOOO I can drive in the rain without sitting in the middle of the seat like the mail man. LOL The funny thing is i don't really know what i did to fix it. BUT I DID !!! ADJUSTED THIS AND THAT AND EVEN SHORTEN THE ROD FROM THE MOTOR TOO THE PASSENGER SIDE and that made the driver side work. My truck has a few bug to work out !!! 2MOR. i got to get the crusie to work right. WISH ME LUCK !!!! yep OLD YELLER has crusie control !!!!

Congrats on getting the wipers working. Now all you have to worry about is "does the windshield gasket leak".
What Cruise control did you put in? I am going to put a Rostra in the car that I am building. Just thinking about installing it now. I would be interested in hearing you thoughts about your install.

The glass guy won't even try so i had both rubbers there so i just went without the chrome . I may just sale it. but no time soon. The Rostra was easy to wire up but i still got to program the darn thing. Guess i will know 2mor.

I put a Rostra cruise unit in the 29 Ford pictured in my avatar back in the early 90s. It worked very well...
