grannyknot Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 The wiper linkage is one of the most neglected parts on these cars, to get it to work the way it did when new you need to dissemble the entire linkage, clean 40 yrs of gunge off the moving surfaces, make some new felt gaskets that surround the ball joints then lubricate it. When you're done it will turn with very little effort, I'm sure there threads in the archives here about the procedure and if not here then there are some on ClassicZcar.
