Description
A hidden wiper system for 1953–1955 Ford F-100 trucks. The wiper hardware tucks out of sight, so the cowl keeps its factory look.

- The kit includes everything except assembly lube, arms and blades, escutcheons, and model-specific switch knobs.
- Your stock pieces will still work in place of those parts.
- Runs off the switch supplied with the system rather than a GM column switch.

Installation
A GM column-mounted wiper switch cannot control this system. GM switches ground the wiper motor while this system switches the positive wire, so wire in the switch that comes with the kit.
Have assembly lube, wiper arms and blades, escutcheons and a switch knob on hand before you start. Those are not in the kit, though your stock pieces will work. Escutcheons are the trim bezels that cover the pivot posts in the cowl.

Can I install this myself?
It is designed for a home install with ordinary hand tools, and the fitment notes on this page list anything that needs drilling, trimming or welding. Where an installation guide or video exists for the part it is linked in the Installation tab.
