Electric wipers?

I'm looking for an electric wiper motor or kit for my 47, and my
53. What do you recomend? Years ago I bought one that was
called a universal motor, and it was a total waste of $.
I put the vacume motor back on, but it gets old when it
only works on deceleration.
Thanks.

NewPort engineering makes a direct bolt in, 2-speed, self parking electric wiper motor for our trucks. Got one in my 48.

Same! Newport Engineering. Best upgrade I made.....kinda had to tho, The flappers in the vacuum unit were pretty dead. No complaints about the product.
