WHO - WHAT - WHERE. for electric wipers and how hard was it to install them and about how much $$$$. this is next project on the list of many.

I am contemplating installing electric wipers in my truck as well. S and S truck parts(www.sandstruck.com) offers the kit in 6,12, or 24 volt. SB896 is the 24VDC kit. SB895 is the 12VDC. Their phone is 800-621-1553. They also have lights, clutch parts, axles and other goodies.

A description of my wiper setup (including part numbers and source information) can be found at:

The units that I use are made by United Technologies and are commonly used on heavy equipment and large trucks... They've been in place for ten years and haven't missed a beat (even when driving in hurricanes...).

Enjoy.

I ran into a guy while at tractor Supply a few months back who had pulled up in an M37. While talking to him I noticed he had electric wipers in his truck. I asked where he got them and he said he bought them through JC Whitney. You may want to give them a look.... The guy's setup looked pretty sweet, so when the time comes I may give them a look as well.

how did the wipers look as far as vision from the drivers view did they interfere with the windshield opening by the top hinge as to not being able to open the window i have herd once some electric wipers do

Anthony;

Sorry, can't answer that one. This incident I mentioned was months ago. I honestly don't remember how they were mounted. Couldn't tell you if they interfered with the windows opening or not.

I have mounted them in my truck. If you mount them correctly (I am talking about the electric ones like Garbee mounted) then they don't. However I later converted my windshield over to one pc solid so now it doesn't matter anyway.
