Wiper arm problem

    Geez, I never thought I'd have trouble getting parts for a fairly common truck. One of my wiper arms has a broken spring so it flops on the windshield. I've tried a lot of places and they all want to sell me Anco part # 41-03. This won't work! It is for a 1972 or later Dodge with the taller windshield. The part adjusts from 14 to 19 inch blades. I use a 13 inch blade. I would cut it down but the silly thing presses on and is held by a clip. My arms are held on with a nut. I drove one of these trucks when they were fairly new and I know the reason they redesigned the windshield in '72. You REALLY need good wipers on these babies.
   I've got a Mercedes SL roadster in the garage but I'm looking forward to driving this puppy more since I won't worry about it raining on it. I've got the brakes working better and as soon as I transfer a car to my niece, I'll swap plates and be driving this for giggles. Still working on my LLL pipe design.
