Junior9009 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Not having any luck locating a pair of new aluminum wiper arms and blades for my truck. I found Trico was a manufacturer but they say they can't find any. I believe I have Robert Bosch arms on mine. The arms are approx 15" and arms are 17". Any help is appreciated.

Junior9009 Posted October 15, 2017 Author Share Posted October 15, 2017 I called them. They only get in the black powdercoated ones. Thank you though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kscarbel2 Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Do you have air or electric? The R/U/DM right-side 62QT44R (aluminum) supercedes to a 7623-KIT49R (black). The R/U/DM left-side 62QT45R (aluminum) supercedes to a 7623-KIT50L (black). 7623 if I recall correctly is the former Mack's vendor code (prefix) for Sprague, which is now part of CVG. You can look on the internet for the original numbers as new old stock (NOS). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junior9009 Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 They are electric. I found Trico stamped on a pair of arms on a 70’s R700L. Called them they said their no longer available. I’ll have to try what you said above. Thanks, I’ll let you know what I find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Called them they said their no longer available. I’ll have to try what you said above. Thanks, I’ll let you know what I find! Trico really put us in a bind when they abruptly decided to exit the heavy truck business in 1986. Sprague was thrilled to get the new business but they couldn't create the tooling overnight. We had a lot of angry customers due to the temporarily. unavailability of wiper motors, I can tell you. But it wasn't Mack's fault. As usual though, the super parts people at the Mack factory branches and distributors shared the inventory we had in the field and helps to minimize the impact. Likewise, Trico's exit from heavy truck hurt Paccar so much that it considered buying Trico (http://www.nytimes.com/1986/11/18/business/company-news-paccar-considers-takeover-of-trico.html). Before you give up, be sure to call Rome Truck Parts in Georgia at 1-800-284-4345. They have been a Trico distributor for years. http://www.rometruckparts.com/ Note page 9 - http://rometruckparts.com/catalogs/RTP Trico Parts Book.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I investigated a source of stainless wiper blades for my R-model with air drive. Found out they were avalible from Anco. Ordered a pair from evil bay and purchased almost the same style ones as were on the truck. And those were too probably there from the factory. Original blades also had "Anco" stamped on the body parts. Checked out for the part#, don't have it handy at the moment. Can find later if required. 2 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior9009 Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 That'd be great! I imagine they are a left and a right? How much Rich? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 Better double-check the drive shafts. I have both air and electric on different cabs and they seemed different of the diameter the arms fit on. Not sure on this fact but haven't relate each other up-close or measure. I ordered both 62QT44R and 62QT45R but will not get them in my hands before the New Year. 1 Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
