Wiper part source needed
I need to replace the bushings for the wiper motor transmission arms. These are the brass or bronze strips that fit over the ***** on the rotating shaft attached to the washer motor. They are about 3" long by about 3/8" wide with slots for the bolts at either end. The AIM does not show a separate part number for them.
I have checked major suppliers (Zip, Ecklers, Corvette Central, Dr. Rebuild, Mis America) on line catalogs with no results.
Anyone know where I can find these?

If you can't find the part new there are many good used ones out there, they are the same from 68-82, many vendors like paragon and many others will sell a good usable set. That is what I did at the time. I never saw this part in the "Help" repair part section, AL.
