I haven't got much to go in getting Marcia on the Road but the Wipers just arn't fitting for me. Do you assemble the Box Assembly with the Tube & Cable with the Motor and Fit. I have also tried with the Motor in place and trying to connect the Cable but the Tube & retainer bolt arnt long enough.

Also struggling to get the passenger side angled enough to tighten down the nut.

Any Hints will make me a Happy Man

it's a 68 or earlier, do you have the right wiper motor (square) and wheel boxes too?

DONT KNOW IF THIS HELPS BUT WHAN I REPLACED MY MOTER I LEFT THE CABLE IN PLACE ,,i just pulled the motor apart (took the cover off)then inserted the cable then bolted every thing together again

Yep Square Motor (Two pinned) & believe the wheel boxes are correct as its the only ones I have. Thinking the tube that connect to the motor maybe bent a little. I'm also using your Top Rubbers Dr with similar bottom but smaller diameter

I've always had to fit it all up loose, usually putting the tube/wiper boxes in first, then the motor but not bolted in until I connect it to the tube/cable, then I jiggle everything around until I can bolt the wiper motor up.

I tried fitting a whole assembly without taking anything apart or loosening anything. I think I invented new swear words that day :/

Well..I decided this afternoon I was going to look at the wipers.
Owen off to bed..Okay lets get started..Wiper box & tubs already out and just sat there looking at it. Hmmmm I wonder if I put the Wiper Box up the otherway the Pipe would be closer
Well You would not credit it..I rebuilt them up the wrong way
