Wiper Motor Spiral Drive


Recommended Posts

Got new wiper wheel boxes and new spiral drive fitted, however the spiral drive itself is miles too long. Given that that im not in a position to power the wiper motor up yet, is there any way i can tell how much i need to cut off the end of the spiral drive? Would it be safe to lop 6 or 7 inches off the end?

It needs to be longer than the distance to the furthest wheel box to allow for the arc of the wipe. The furthest wheel box should have a short "dummy tube" on the non motor side to allow the spiral drive to "push past".
