AI caption · Photo 355 of 529

This document is an exploded parts / installation illustration showing the windshield wiper motor and linkage assembly mounted behind the dash of a Ford truck/Bronco. The main drawing shows the wiper motor attached to a motor bracket at the right side of the cowl area, with the arm and pivot shaft assembly (linkage) running across the cowl structure and connecting the motor shaft to the wiper pivots. The steering column support bracket is labeled for orientation. Two inset detail views at the top clarify component relationships: the left inset shows the arm and pivot shaft assembly (part 17532-3) with its seal (part 17A475), and the right inset shows how the linkage attaches to the motor shaft using clip 17450. A reader can learn the part identification numbers for the wiper pivot seal, the arm and pivot shaft assembly, and the retaining clip, as well as the physical routing and attachment points of the wiper linkage relative to the wiper motor, motor bracket, and steering column support. This is useful for removing, replacing, or reassembling the wiper motor and linkage, particularly for locating the clip that secures the linkage to the motor shaft. No year, model, torque values, or wiring information appears on the drawing itself.
