Are you tired of slow, shitty windshield wipers on your 80s or early 90s Jeep Cherokee XJ or Comanche MJ?
In this video I install a wiper motor and transmission from a 2001 Cherokee into my 1989 Comanche, splicing the electrical pigtail from one motor to the other, and adding a ground for added continuity, and other troubleshooting tips.
This video also has tips on how to properly solder wires together. A worthy upgrade for improved wiper performance!
