1955 Chevy Rain gear wiper install

We finally obtained not only our rain gear kit but a vintage air unit as well, which will follow this install. Overall the rain gear install went much easier than I’d expected, though the dash was quite stripped which made it much easier. Following the vintage air install and reassembly of the car, this build will be done, prompting me to pick BACK up on my two door (FINALLY!) while my father begins his nomad build. Thanks for watching!

Thank you for this. I am going to put one in soon. I will make a video of my experience.

Thanks for your videos. I am installing some rain gear for my wipers in my 55 Chevy 2 door post car. I have taken everything off of the wiper shafts. Can you tell me if the shafts you tap and knock thru the firewall?

[@TheBuildSpot]

I don’t recall having to do so, just took my time and manipulated the shaft stubs through the firewall from the inside, and ran outside the car to get it started as far as screwing the retainer nut on

It’s been a year now since the installation. Have you had any problems with the wipers? Are they quiet while operating? Would you recommend them?

[@TheBuildSpot]

Wipers work fine and are very quiet, I have no problems with them at all. We ended up buying a second set for my dads nomad actually

@@TheBuildSpot that’s awesome! Thank you for the reply. I’m gonna order the kit for mine. Thanks again.

@@1996slamster not a problem, that’s the whole reason I filmed all of this was to hopefully help people out with it!
