Wipers... and oh I think this is gonna suck.....

Hi All....

I'm on a roll with all these posts tonight.....

So... my wipers don't work. Motor works good, but the linkage has come off the motor. When I bought my car, and had a quick check out done on it, the mechanic told me the plastic bushings that hold the arms together were worn out. He changed one nearest the steering column, but said the other was gonna be pretty tough to get to. I was trying to keep initial labor costs down, so we left it at that. I think I got three wipes out of both wipers before the passenger wiper fell off the bushing again.

I was screwing around with things the other night, and heard a clunk, and my wipers don't work at all anymore. Thinking back 20 years to Valinat #1, there's a plastic pushing that holds a arm to the wiper motor. I assume this has fallen off.

The difference between Valiant #1, and my current 1974 Valiant Brougham is that the new car has a lot more stuff under the dash, including AC.

How the heck do you get to the wiper motor on a loaded to the nuts 1974 Valiant?
