1969 Windshield Wipers & motors

Post by PetrolPatrol »

Trying to figure out the windshield wiper situation and wondering if these are the correct 69 parts? All of the pictures I'm seeing show the two individual motors but it's harder to find images that match my setup. If this is the OE setup what is it supposed to look like when complete?

As an aside - am I able to convert to the individual motor setup?

The ‘true’ ‘69 Patrol was the first year for the single motor wiper. What you have there is original. It works better and is more reliable than the two individual motors. You actually get two speeds and a windshield washer.

OK, thanks, sometimes it's hard to tell where OE ends and PO begins. You can't tell from the picture but I'm pretty sure the motor was moved - it doesn't line up with the pre-existing holes at all.

Can you take a picture showing everything on one picture? It's difficult to assess if anything was done to the original motor from what you showed us. Looks original, but we can relate to your concern.
