| Post subject: | Karcraft wiper spindle problem or me? |
Checked in the search function - no joy Have today fitted new Karcraft windscreen wiper spindles to my 1964 850 (rhp). The wiper arc sweep now is much larger and fouls the body work  . Is this a part issue or a human one - have i missed something else?
Cheers Chris |

Earlier models had a smaller sweep than later Clubbies - You can get the right ones from places like Sommerford Mini overseas |

Yes the ones Karcraft have would have the wrong sweep angle for your car. |

Is this correct GT mowog? Why would they sell me incorrect replacement parts when I clearly advised them of the model type?  How should I fix this do you suggest?

Hi Crumpet, Sorry to hear about your issue there,, normally the guys at Karcraft a really good... But I just had a look through their catalog and they don't ""appear"" to sell any wiper components for anything pre '69... I'd contact them and find out if you can return or exchange them,, as I said they are normally pretty good so I'm sure they'll do what they can to help... they might stock what your after but don't have it listed in my catalog, so you might still be in luck... |

How should I fix this do you suggest?Sorry, I can not speak for the guys that sell you the parts, but they usually get it right. You'll need to get the correct ones. You could try Mini King, although there would be many others that would have it too. For a RHP (Right Hand Park) 1964 model Mini, the correct P/N (according to my parts book) is 37H6100. It should have 22 teeth on it. |
