Rick Morder Oct 7th, 99, 11:55 AM I'm looking for help on identifing what type of wiper motor I should get for my 72 Chevelle ragtop, 350, auto, a/c, non SS, but I have installed a SS hood. When I bought the car it had no wiper motor,just the arms and blades. I have been seen in various catalogs that there are 2 types; concealled and non concealled. Thanks Rick DG Oct 7th, 99, 12:26 PM Probably concealed. Round motor can. The replacement motor is cheap. I think I have some diagrams from my service manual. I'll post 'em.

It was about twice as wide as the other also. Even if that piece were missing you can still tell what type motor it came with if the wiper transmission is there. Concealed uses a pivot pin that attaches to a second arm on the driver wiper arm. Non-concealed didn't have the pivot arm.........GT | ||
