Default 67 Wiper Install question

I had wiper motor rebuilt. I have it bolted to firewall and am about to hook up transmission arms. One has a bushing, one does not? I assume I need another one, but not listed in Zip or Paragon. Any ideas? Thanks!

Does one side of an arm look like it has put a ware mark on the face of the other arm? Also, does the special retainer clip have room to slide/snap on? Dennis

Here are some pics of my 67 wiper arms that I have not taken apart yet. Not sure where you can find another one though. I did lube the transmissions so they spin freely now.

Here are the part numbers from my 53-69 catalog. They show a spacer but not the bushings. I believe paragon has the rubber spacer only. Also I will post a link to Joe’s transmission lubrication post he did if you are interested.

Thanks guys. The spacer is easy, but you can see brass on both arms in Elwood's pics. That has to be a bushing. I wonder if all chevys used it?
