Is there a difference between years 70-74 for challengers wiper assemblies? I have a 70 Challenger which needs a variable speed motor but can I use the linkage under the cowl from a 72 challenger? Are they the same or is it a 70-71 and 72-74 like for the front fenders.

Thanks
Ogre

yes 70 is unique from other years , 2 speed & 3 speed are different from each other in all years .

The 72 - 74 wiper motor crank arm is also different.
It is smaller were it bolts to the motor and the pin length for the linkage arm is also slightly longer than 70-71.

Can you send the lenghth measurements in inches for the 71 as this may be my parking problem (wipers won't park)

Strycker, when the wipers don't park, it's usually because the switch in the dash isn't letting the motor run in reverse to actually park the wipers.
