Are they the same wiper on the 700 series? https://www.adverts.ie/cars-for-brea...-1987/30234546
There's also a chap in Mayo breaking a 940: https://www.adverts.ie/cars-for-brea...aking/31502705

I'm not 100% sure by my impression was that the arms are not splined, they are soft. Splines are made by the splines in the spindle.
I have run mine smooth by not tightening them enough then tried to wipe with too much snow. After giving them a clean out and retighening they have worked fine ever since. |

I'm guessing the wiper ar⅘m socket is aluminium so a soft non ferrous metal.

This thread was brought to a happy conclusion thanks to Lakes Autos in Bedford, and also to Dave at Koping Motors here in Dublin who suggested them. I shall say nothing about Spirit Motors, which is a great favour to them..
Correct, it's very soft and goes onto a steel spindle. Did the job for 25 years.. just a shame they're now out of production. |
