When my WSW driver side flew off on the freeway it took the large grooved nut that the WSW attaches to. I was able to replace the wiper from someone on the Forum but I now need that larger nut that goes over the shaft and into the wiper base.
Used or new with decent grooves to hold the WSW is fine. See attached pictures to understand what I’m asking for.
Regards, Jon

Hmm, that part is pot metal, and deteriorates easily over time.

Be sure to check for enough "meat" still left one the part.
Fyi; these pot metal cylinders can be pulled off with a small bearing puller
 
i had that cap come off before and i put it back on with loctite sleeve retainer - 640. buy the smallest container, you won't use much

Gentlemen thanks for the feedback. I think I'll buy a wow assembly and pry the nut off per Erik's suggestion.

At 1 o'clock a NOS head,
at 3 o'clock Waldemar's remanufactured part
at 6 o'clock one with the nut off
at 8, 9 and 11 o'clock used parts.
This knurled nut is pressed on the shaft, it sits very tight.
Once you have removed what remains from your nut you surely find the shaft badly worn.
Better look for a good complete part!

Thomas,
Inspected my WSW shaft and it is in good shape. Checked the linkage and it works properly. I live in CA and my Coupes almost never see rain. I'm not willing to dismantle my WSW assembly when I can secure the top nut with Locktight and never use them again. Are you willing to sell me one of the arms and nut with good metal at 1 o'clock or 3 o'clock?
Regards, Jon
 
Hi Jon,
1 o'clock is a NOS NLA part, in my eyes it would be a sacrilege to use it for this purpose
2 o'clock is a reproduction part, the nut does not fit on your assembly
So for both: no, sorry!
I sent you a DM with a quotation for the other used parts.
