Can you buy the whole arms or just the bushing? Also looking for what holds them onto the motor.
Wiper transmission arms 75 Duster

You can buy the bushings. Dorman makes them & a few companies offer the kit (2 different kinds of bushings needed). I don't know if the linkage arms are reproduced but they are attached to the motor with a short steel link arm & a nut, & the linkage rods are attached to the wiper pivots via a press-on bushing. I replaced them all on an 87 Dodge truck I had & believe the bushings are the same kind. There is 1 type for link rods to pivots & 1 type for attaching to wiper motor link arm to the link rods. I know I have the link rods from a 74 Duster. I will have to look for the motor link arm. I'm pretty sure I saved it.
These are the pieces needed to complete the wiper transmission linkage, except the left-side (Driver side) wiper pivot assembly, the part that goes through body & the wiper arm attaches to. (It was MIA when I got the car) The bushings are pictured at lower center that you'll need. Replace them ALL with the linkage completely removed from the car. The bushings need to be pressed on & having them off the car makes a tough job so much easier. Good grease & a vise help to put them on.
Take pictures of how it's on the car before removing it so you know how it goes back together. (Ask me how I know!)
