What is/are the difference(s) between the 66-67 and 67.5 wiper linkage assemblies?
Thanks

What is the difference in how the arms attach to the motor? The 65-67 arms are held on by a nut. 68-70 are different. 67.5 held on like 68-70?
66 stroker, almost done.
67 basket case, paint coming soon.

Curtis, I just looked at my 67.5 and the arms are held on by a single nut, just like the 65-67.

So if that's the same you just swap out both arms I would think. The 66-67 has a slot type hole for the top arm where it seats onto the motor.

You could probably even mix the arms. Eighth of an inch difference is not likely to matter. If I had some 67.5 arms I might try it since I don't have a dash in and the wipers just got put on.

I still have a firewall with the cowl on it out in the yard. It's supposed to go to scrap soon.
