- This week we upgrade the stock 6volt wiper motor with a 12volt drop in armature. We also add a set of drop outs for safari windows. We struggle with a few parts, including the original wiper motor, but we overcome all obstacles and get the job done. It's a long one, but it's realistic in the automotive tech world.
Jesus why don’t more people do videos like this. Simple. Straightforward. The only advice I would give would be to maybe turn down the music a bit.
I’ll talk to my editor. 🤣
Want to thank you for this video. Watched it again for the second time this morning and then tackled my wiper motor. Waiting on the cover gasket to finish her up and get her back in the bus. Thanks again.
Glad it was helpful. 👍🏽
It’s alive!!!!!! Love the growl resonating thru the body.
So cool to see this process in only 30 minutes 🤘🏼
Outstanding attention to detail. You have the deft touch of a matron. Great work.
You made me break out a dictionary. 🤣🤣
Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!
I've had the same issue with the armature on a 12V conversion. I took the magnetic assembly off and had to file down the small cylinders that index the upper part with the lower part, it seemed as if the magnet was not sitting flat, ended up with the armature more centred similar to yours. Also worth noting that the armature is specific to the brand of wiper motor (bosch etc). 👍
I didn’t want to remove the indexing pins on the outer housing. Saw a thread on the samba where they “adjusted “ the center pin. Worked out in the end. There are always multiple ways to do a job. Appreciate your input. 👊🏽
Nice work as always!!
Appreciate that Josh. 👊🏽
