I picked up a used wiper motor but it doesn't mate up with my wiper actuator arm. The groove in the arm is way smaller than the arm that came with the wiper motor as you can see. My B body arm Arm that came with the motor Correct arm on top. I would try to use the arm that came with it, but the plastic cam that attaches to the long arms doesn't fit on the spud as you can see. They are very different. I've got the body of this unit restored. Can I swap out the big drive gear inside the housing so that my arm will fit? Does anyone know what model car this wiper mechanism goes to?
I’m listening.

Stephan, I think you are correct. I did a bit of digging on the web and it does look like the slot on that arm is bigger on the 68 back cars. I guess I'm off to dig for a modern motor. I have this motor all bead blasted and painted up. I'm wondering if I could just swap the gear so that the arm will fit. Any ideas on which year motors will work on a 70 coronet?

Hmmmmmmm. That's a thought. I don't know well it would run if I was off center by a half a tick... I've got a bead on a 1972. Almost wonder if it would be worth it to just swap out the two transmissions or just start over for that matter.
I’m listening.

If the crank has P/N 2580934 and V Speed on it all you need is the nylon bushings for a 68 to make it work. PM me I have them.

The crank and bushings shown on the red carpet should work with the 68 motor. The bushing you bought is for a 2sp but I've heard that it will work on a 69-70 b-body. Other than being dirty the one you have looks fine. If you could post a pic of the switch plate we might be able to see if its clocked right
