Title: A picture of '65/'66 2 speed wiper motors
Post by: 65Ford on December 16, 2017, 03:42:35 PM
I was cleaning the garage and um, discovered five 2 speed wiper motors.

Top row dated August 1964, November 1964, and December 7 1965
Bottom row dated February 1965, June 1965

I thought it was interesting all the '65 wiper motors were C4ZF-17504-B.  I guess -A was much earlier than August '64.

They all looked same.  The '66 wiper motor had an extra wire and was stamped C6Zf-17504-B.  Maybe -B doesn't signify an engineering change?

An engineering number change would indicate some type of change, could be something internal.

An interesting tidbit a lot of folks don't know is that the single speed motor bracket is different than the dual speed motor and not interchangeable.

I believe the C4ZF to a C6ZF does signify a engineering change.

Hello "65Ford".

Any chance you would sell the Feb of 65 2 speed motor and bracket?  Does it have the short arm to attach the under dash arms?

You can pm me if you wish.

Thanks!
