Well I just replaced mine on my 1994 Econoline. Might be similar to an 88:
First remove the drivers side wiper arm. (Cock arm up at the spring joint. Pull out metal tab and wiggle arm upward.)
Next remove the drivers side of the window grill. (6-8 screws phillips.)
The motor is now exposed, remove the plastic drip strip and pull up the plastic sheet cover. (Pull up the sheet carefully so you can reuse it.)
Next disconnect two wiring harnesses connected to the motor. Next remove three mounting bolts.
Next reach under and remove the clip that connects the motor to the push rods.
That's it. Helps if you have really tiny hands. (I don't...)

Windshield wipers don't work on my 1988 Dodge Dakota?

If the wiper motor isn't working, check the fuse to start with, then the wiring connections. If the wiper motor is working but not the wiper arms, unscrew the cowl piece just behind the hood ( the part that looks like a grill ) and see if the little plastic inserts that hold the wiper arms in place have dry-rotted or not. They are available at your local dodge dealership and are pretty cheap.
