"If" I remember correctly, there's a Mack service bulletin about that. Have you contacted Watt's Mack?

Doesn't Volvo have a high opinion of legacy Mack parts. That's over four times what it used to sell for. And they want to be your partner in trucking...........hard to figure.

j hancock Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 This may be a more economical conversion if you want to do some fabrication. http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/14786-elictric-wiper-conversion-r-model/ Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

keg1 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I went on eBay and got an electric motor for $50 and I think I also got the shafts on eBay and went to Mack and got the arms. I think I had $250- 300 in it. I bought the kit from Watts for my Superliner for $750 at the time. If you check EBay you should be able to find all the pieces.

MACKS Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 Thanks guys,yeah the kits are pricey,I already suggested to him to look for a repair shop that could fabricate something up and install.
