Description
The Mighty Wiper is an ultra-compact, heavy-duty windshield wiper motor specifically engineered for street rods, custom builds, and vehicles with smaller windshields. Its minimalist design makes it a favorite for builders who need to fit a reliable wiper system into tight spaces without cluttering the aesthetic of the car.
Performance & Compact Design
Minimal Power Draw: This motor is exceptionally efficient, drawing less than 1 amp during operation. This makes it ideal for custom electrical systems.
Ultra-Compact Size: Its small footprint allows for mounting in the bodywork of almost any street rod, even in extremely cramped cowl or dash areas.
Fixed Sweep Arc: The motor provides a consistent 110-degree wipe arc, which is perfectly suited for the smaller glass surface area typical of vintage and custom vehicles.
Single-Speed Reliability: The motor runs at a steady single speed when used with a standard on/off switch, though custom wiring can be used for more advanced setups.
Fitment and Customization
Shaft Length Options: To accommodate different body and glass thicknesses, the motor is available in five threaded shaft lengths: 1", 1 1/2", 2", 2 1/2", and 3".
Bezel Compatibility: Each unit comes with an aluminum bezel blank, but it is also designed to work with many original factory bezels for a more integrated look.
Orientation Flexibility: The motor can be mounted in any position (no designated up or down), giving you total freedom during the installation process.
Important Installation Notes
Individual Motor per Arm: This system is designed for a 1:1 ratio; the Mighty Wiper cannot drive two arms via a linkage. You must use one motor for each wiper blade.
Manual Parking: This motor is not self-parking. You must manually switch it off when the wiper arm reaches the desired position on the windshield.
Standard 12V System: While designed for 12-volt systems, 6-volt versions are typically available via special order for older restorations.
I was looking for a small electric wiper to fit in the original position in my 1941 ford pickup. Any motor I saw online would not fit with the original dash cluster. I saw your ad, could be possible. Bought it , fits, works great !

Appears to be good quality
This wiper motor was a perfect fit in my 1946 Studebaker M5 pickup to replace the factory vacuum wiper. It came with excellent instructions. I also ordered the matching wiper arm & blade and it has good pressure against the windshield. Make sure to wet the windshield very good when testing the blade. The kit includes a 2 amp fuse even though the instructions say to use a 1 amp. The 1 amp fuse immediately blew but the motor seems to work fine with the 2 amp fuse. I was able to re-use the original mounting bezels, just had to drill them out to fit over the larger post. The wiper speed was even faster than I expected.
