Other: 49 Pickup truck windshield wiper linkage arms

[Hawaiian stude]

I got a 49 Studebaker 2Rpickup I'm working on, and I am looking for the linkage arms for the wipers. Anywhere I can get them new or used in good condition??

Are you converting to electric wipers
Later "C" cabs used electric wipers but one of the arms was different.
Part numbers will help since most vendors stock their parts by part number.

The parts you are looking for are 652728 and 652729. They were used on all 49-52 C cab trucks, but not on the later trucks. They should not be that hard to find. Suggest also posting here:

Note that the NewPort conversion kit does NOT fit Stude pickups on which electric wipers were originally available (mid-53 on), even if equipped with vacuum wipers. The mounting strut on the cowl is completely different.
