GEARBONE's complete front windshield wiper motor and linkage assembly replaces worn units on Jeep Wrangler models (2007–2018) to restore smooth, reliable windshield wiping.

If your Wrangler's wipers are noisy, intermittent, stuck, or moving unevenly, the problem is often the motor or linkage. This GEARBONE assembly combines a 5-pin front wiper motor and the linkage transmission into one ready-to-install unit engineered to match OE fit and function. It is compatible with many 3.6L and 3.8L Wrangler variants and replaces part numbers such as 55077859AB and 55077859AD.

Which Jeep models and years will this assembly fit?

This assembly is designed for Jeep Wrangler vehicles from 2007 through 2018, covering both 3.8L V6 and 3.6L V6 engine options where the 5-pin connector configuration is used. It is also listed as compatible with Wrangler JK 2018 models. Always verify your OEM part number or connector type before purchasing.

  • Compatible years: 2007–2017 (3.8L/3.6L) and 2018 JK 3.6L
  • Fits factory 5-pin electrical connector setups
  • Replaces 55077859AB, 55077859AD, 55077859AC and listed OE equivalents
  • Matches original mounting points and linkage geometry

How does this assembly perform compared with the original equipment?

GEARBONE engineered this assembly to OE-grade specifications for fit, durability, and response. It provides smooth, factory-style wiping action and resists the elements to maintain performance in rain, snow, and dusty conditions. The integrated linkage reduces installation complexity and aligns wipe coverage with original specifications.

  • OE-grade motor response and torque for consistent wipe patterns
  • Durable linkage materials to resist wear and binding
  • Sealed motor housing to protect against moisture and debris
  • Pre-aligned assembly minimizes adjustment after install

What common symptoms indicate I need to replace the motor and linkage?

Typical signs include slow or jerky wiper movement, blades stopping mid-sweep, grinding or clicking noises, and complete failure to move. These symptoms usually result from worn gears, seized joints, or motor failure—issues addressed by replacing both motor and linkage together. Installing the complete assembly prevents repeated failures from damaged linkage or mismatched components.

  • Noisy or grinding operation during wiping cycles
  • Uneven wiping or areas left uncleared on the windshield
  • Blades stalling or ceasing in a parked position
  • Intermittent operation or complete motor non-response

What comes in the box and what warranty/support is provided?

The package includes the front wiper motor and the full linkage transmission assembled together for direct replacement. GEARBONE supports the product with customer assistance and includes a two-year warranty to cover defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Keep your vehicle's original mounting hardware where possible to simplify reassembly.

  • Complete motor + linkage assembly ready to install
  • Designed to plug into factory 5-pin connector
  • 2-year limited warranty from GEARBONE
  • Customer support available for fitment or installation questions

Who is this for: This product is aimed at Jeep Wrangler owners and independent repair shops that need a reliable, direct-fit replacement for failing front wiper systems on 2007–2018 models. It's especially useful for drivers who want an OE-style solution with the convenience of a complete assembly—no hunting for separate parts—and a warranty-backed option to restore clear windshield visibility in everyday and off-road conditions.
