Looks like a good starting point, be prepared for unexpected issues though. My 1 year rebuild has stretched to 4 years and still going.

Looks like a good clean straight body. Some work looks like it has been done. Do you know it's back history in so far as what is was like and what's been done?

Half the crank is missing from that. The bit you have to take off to remove the second actuator arm. Can be a bit like hens teeth. Also there is a clip but you can get them on eBay now.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I spoke to the wrecker; he doesn't have the missing part of the crank but knows what I need for next time an EK comes in.

That shouldn't take too long? Good to see you have the same workbench as me  |

You can make the crank and if you do it correctly then your wiper blades wont hit your chrome window surrounds even when there is play in your wiper arm bushes .

Tricky bit for me would the clip mount but if you have access to machining equipment?
Let me know if anyone wants measurements.

...and the saga continues. I had assumed the FE was on vacuum wipers as there was a vacuum motor in the bits that came with it; hence my mission to search out an EK motor. I took a look under the cowl this afternoon and to my surprise I found a FoMoCo electric wiper motor mounted up under there. I've put some photos below. Has anyone seen a setup like this before? You'll also notice that someone in the past has cut through the actuator arms. Butcher!   |
