Wiper arm bushings

Post by 65styleside »

I am in the process of adding a two speed motor with the delay box to my 65. Well as I was inspecting parts I noticed that three of the four rubber bushings on my transmission arms are shot. Carpenter has both of the arms but they are out of stock currently. Does anybody know of a place that sells just the bushings or even replacement arms? I've checked with lmc, flashback f100s and various other mustang and ford shops.
Thanks for the help.

I've seen some on Evilbay but not as cheap as Carpenters.

When I pulled it all out I marked the arms, what order they where in and which way they faced. I did not look at what numbers are on my arms, I do know they are both silver. How much are you asking for good used rods?
