Brains Trust Help - Vacuum Wipers

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Jordan

Sorry there are two different styles of mount Early and Late. So the result is a real mix and match.

Picture below shows both early on top is Cab 13 1942 which has four screws all a little over 1/2" the two outer attach the wiper motor to the a separate mounting plate the has the bearing tube that goes through the windshield frame. This plate is in turn screwed to the bracket that is mounted on the windshield frame.

The bottom picture shows the later Cab 13 1945 vintage which uses only the two outer bolts holes on the plate which also has the separate mounting plate the has the bearing tube that goes through the windshield frame. But in this case the mount on the windshield is drilled for the outer holes to line up, saving two screws.

I think I ended up using 3/4 screws and cutting them to length but 1/2 I think will work.

Cheers Phil
