Rusted out in my car,
One of the pivot points in the window wiper rod system.
The two wipers both rotate inside a shaft. When fully disassembled, the axle in the shaft on the left side of the car was rusted quite badly.
Does someone have a replacement as seen in the pic of the single part?
As these pivots are just in the open environment, i guess most used wiper systems have these symptoms.
So ideally im after a part that is already disassembled and prooven to be (moderatly) ok.
If not then ill have to get something turned on a lathe.
(By the way; it wasn't that difficult to pull it all apart. You need a pulley to pull off the two ribbed cilinders. The white plastic linkages just pull apart by hand. Some more leverage is needed for the black ones, I used a 24 mm wrench to pop them.
