When I had my truck apart for paint I replaced it with a Rain Gear wiper system. It came with new linkage and everything needed to install.

I bought mine through Matt's Classic Bowties a vendor on here, they had the best price.

I contacted Randy at Raingear and he said he is not sure if his wiper system will fit this 49 PU which makes no sense. I have an aftermarket radio that is made to look like an original type and fits in the original spot and expensive. What kind of radio are you using? Can you take some pictures for me with dimensions of under the dash? Randy tells me he has 19 different dashes but none like mine so he cant get me any measurements and of course no returns if it doesn't fit. His concern is if the radio will interfere with the motor. It looks like a quality wiper system but I need to know if it will fit my 49.

Thank you,
