32-36 wiper arm

[36Bill]

I still use the stock vacuum wiper motor on my 36 pickup and I need a new wiper arm. I got one that didn't work and want to know if anyone has found a good one out there.

Can you provide the length ? I have some NOS Trico arms, in a couple different lengths.

Mike,
It is about 8 1/4" long form the end to the pivot, add a 1/4" overall. Here is a picture of the rusty old one. The new one never fit and broke when I tried to put it on.

Sorry, it looks like mine are all too short for your truck. Maybe, mine are for roadsters. I have many NOS 7 1/2" stainless arms.

36Bill, Try Bob Drake, spring/summer catalog has 2 lengths and NEW 12-1/2" cut to length stock type arms.

Mike, Thanks for looking, that's a nice pile of wiper arms even black paint!

Randy, Have you used the Drake arms? I saw them but was hoping someone could give some feedback on them or any others that they have.

Bill, No, sorry to say. I need to order mine along with other stuff. Like you, I'm hoping for more info.

It would have been easier to measure length if you put the start of the tape on the end of the wiper instead of 1 1/2" or so away from the wiper end.?? ken ct.

Ken, the shroud is not at the end. The tape is measuring from the 90 deg. bend, as it should be.

The overall length of the wiper arm, laying on the ruler itself, is exactly 8". If you can use it, it is available.
It has a brass cover, or shroud, with most of the nickel plating worn off. The rest looks new. It matches the patina on your truck.
