Wiper pivot problem

Post by peter »

My wiper pivot on the passenger side has a problem, the top aluminum part turns over de steel center part, is this repairable or do I have to find a replacement?

File a flat on the pivot shaft and fit a set screw in the drum.

Nissanman repaired his 310 in a similar fashion.
