Wiper Transmission

The wipers stopped working on my 73', a little digging showed that the arm that drives the wipers that connects to the read of the wiper motor had popped off, and the all the wiper transmission pieces (I think that's what they're called) popped off. Can anyone tell me where I could find the replacement parts? I'm looking for the two plastic pieces that fit inside each other, the spring, and the metal locking disk that holds everything onto the wiper motor shaft.

Additionally, does anyone have a diagram as to how they go back together? I think I have it 90% of the way there, but tried it once and when I tested it the assembly popped off again, so I'm assuming I didn't have something lined up. I'm looking for something that will show how to position the spring between the two plastic pieces before they go together, and how to position the pieces around the driver arm so that the spring loading help retract the wipers.

Any help woudl be appreciated.

Thanks,

I've tried Kim a couple of times here with no luck.

Moparleo, do you have contact info for Bruce?

Thanks,

I don't know why she isn't responding. Maybe Bruce will get back to you.

Talked with Bruce, swapped some pictures, and he confirmed that while I have a 3 spd wiper motor, the linkage used is for a 2 spd, explaining why it continues to be a problem.

Bruce is looking to see if he has the linkage parts, hopefully he does, or I'll be going on a scavenger hunt for 3 spd linkage parts! Half the problem is knowing what the problem is, so my thanks to Bruce for contacting and helping me so quickly.

If you have no luck with Bruce on linkage parts, let me know, I'll see if we have some or I can put you in touch with someone who might. Not sure why you couldn't get me, I'm returning phone calls, emails, etc. Sometimes it takes a day or so if we're prepping more plating for me to find desk/phone time

Thanks for your response, but Bruce has already hooked me up with the parts if was looking for. Again, I appreciate your follow up.
