Wiper motor Upgrade
 

I have a 70 c10 and my wiper motor acts up and is very slow and some times stops working, I was wondering if a newer chevy truck wiper motor would work for my truck or any cross references. I would like to upgrade to a newer model if possible. or would it just be smarter to just replace it with one thats specified for my truck

Have you checked the wiper switch to see if its loose? If it is, it will lose the ground and will be slow.

I see no point in making all kinds of mods to have the exact same end result... wipers going left and right.
Just get one for the correct year/application. You'll be amazed at how fast they will go.
Swapping tip... the p/n is the same for a 69 camaro... so i KNOW they make it.

OK Great info Longhorn Man, was just what I was curious about if the new one would be better and last, didnt want to purchase a new one if it was just going to last a year and die on me again and not be as fast as it should be.

I just did the swap last weekend. I put in a factory replacement and I am blown away at how fast and great it works. Dont for get to lube the wiper posts and linkage.

Do you have a AC/DELCO or GM part number available?

just cleaning and lubricating makes a world of difference and cleaning elecrical contacts helps too// another thing overlooked is condition of the glass with todays products for polishing glass that can make a big difference in seeing and making the wipers go better too
