WC 1/2 ton Trico wiper motor

Post by 17thAirborne » Thu Nov 23, 2017 10:16 am

I searched the forum for trico motors and could not find any images of the motor used to power the wc wipers 1/2 ton. Can someone please post an image and or model number (not dodge part no) that will work in a wc? thanks.

Hi Oz
The wiper motors is the closed cab dodges is the same for all the closed cabs from 1939 to 1947 civilian trucks, the power wagons, and the military closed cabs, carryalls and ambulances
Here is a picture, sorry it is not that good of one.
This is about the best guy out there, but not cheap Wiperman.com
The motors are not that hard to come by. it is the adapters that go on the shaft, and sandwich the cab metal, can be scarce

Ernie,
Thanks for posting. I see there is a left and right one and the manual lists two different types depending on wc model no. What model number are you showing? Is it a trico ksb-xxx?

I don't have the trico numbers
The only difference i could ever tell between the left and right was where and how the vacuum line came off
The wwiperman can give you the KSB numbers

Thanks, I'll contact him:

PS: Just spoke with them on the phone. He said he will no longer rebuild those as the parts are getting hard to find.

I went to the body shop where my cab is and pulled the wiper motor. I am not saying this is what is SUPPOSED to be installed from the factory. This is just what was in it. It looks to be a TRICO KSB model either 333-3 or 438-3 or something like that.

According to wiperman, this is a KSB333 and only applicable to a plymouth passenger.
