Guys/Gals,

Just about to dive into this myself, a question in relation to the EK crank onto the VN wiper motor how is this achieved ?

I haven't got a wiper motor yet so was curious is it splined and tapered and what needs to be done to get it to fit ?

Thanks Greg

This has been a good read and will help me this afternoon, but I have some broken bushes on the pivot shafts and don’t seem to be able to find replacements anywhere.

Does anyone know where to get these bushes?

Both good ideas fellas, I reckon I’ll wrap some rubber round it and glue it in with silastic!

Job done!!!

Quick solution…

22mm grommet with some creative cutting.

Seems to fit well so job done.

Mine I went into rare spares and found a &*#@ rubber in one of the small packs that was a close fit and then some minor trimming.
