Default 77 wiper/blinker lever...

Well.. I broke it.. I read the jim shea papers on it but it kinda skips over 77.. Is there something holding that piece in there? I was able to get needle nose on the stem and pulled pretty hard but it didn't budge.... Anyone? Thanks

I have a '74 and was trying to get my lever out. I found references to ones that you just pull out like you tried. Another place I found a reference to it being held in by a screw. But mine was threaded in and all I had to do was unscrew it.

Sorry, I just reread your post and it looks like yours is a combination wiper/turn signal. That's totally different from mine. Mine is just a turn signal.

It looks like a one year run.... I pulled pretty hard and it didn't budge.

Broke mine a long while ago, but I do remember I had to pull the steering wheel to replace it - sorry, can't recall all the details....

It has two pins on the end. You have to push in a bit on the stump and rotate it, I think counterclockwise.
