Does the + battery connection on the wiper motor feed a "position return" feature? I am confused with the motor being fed power from the switch with a low and high wires? And is there a ground wire connection? Thank you

Bought this kit last summer - just now getting to put it in (many delays) . Vehicle is a '51 473 PU. Question is: The bracket covers up the heater hose passthrus and the upper right hand (passenger side) mounting hole is over the boot for the original vacuum motor cable, bottom hole, same side, is dead in the center of the heater hose hole - what is the recommendation for this situation? Can't flip it around because the hood won't close then. Thanks Mike Browning

I have a 1963 willy CJ-5 that presently only has a single blade, hand operated driver side wiper. I want to update it with a modern two wiper system, even adding a washer function. Do you have kits that will still allow my windshield to fold forward on the hood, and complete the before mentioned?? Please help.
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
12V part number is probably the best bet for wiper motor. But nothing is made that would have a windshield washer function.
