Electric Wiper Conversion Questions
I'm installing an electric windshield wiper conversion kit from LMC on my '50 pickup. Can anyone tell me what the little twisted auxillary bracket attaches to? It is the piece on the lower left of this picture:

It's a brace for the motor assembly. look at the existing motor to see where it goes. If there is an existing motor.

No one else swapped to electric wipers who can say definitively where on the truck the little twisted brace mounts?

Re: Electric Wiper Conversion Questions
I installed one of their units about 12 yrs ago, I've had a few "senior moments" since then, but it attaches to the plate and brace. Here's a video I found, not the best, but should make it clear where it goes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edY2gBYjP5c ...Jim

Re: Electric Wiper Conversion Questions
Thanks gentlemen! Yes, that video is hard to see (filmed under dash) but it does show that the wiper motor plate connects to the cowl vent brace.

Re: Electric Wiper Conversion Questions
Twisted metal brace bolts to the wiper motor end. Other end of brace bolts to cowl vent/dash support brace. The slot on the metal brace is used to adjust the wiper stroke and place the wiper in the correct park position.
