Ok, what tool? I didn't see no tool ;^). (Just kidding) That looks like a good one. I think I'll have to get one too.

A windsheild wiper removal tool is the only way to do it right. Mine is either CalVan or Lisle, can't remember which.

Re: [Chevelle-List] '66 wiper arm removal procedure
Krister, To expand on what Jason said, because the wiper arm is "spring loaded" you need to keep even pressure on the splined "hub" as you pry it up. By that I mean as you pry up with a flat tip screwdriver on the opposite side of the wiper arm you should also be pulling up on the wiper arm with your other hand. By doing this you will apply even pressure (more or less) and the hub should slide up off the splines. Once you get it moving you'll see what I'm talking about. cYa- Herb Lumpp 1966 El Camino ACES 3509, MCC 528 http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/ - Original Message - From: "jason pollock" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2003 10:26 AM Subject: Re: [Chevelle-List] '66 wiper arm removal procedure > krister, > > i used a flat head screwdriver and gently pried them up .i also put some > tape on the cowl so as not to scratch the paint. > having said that i believe there is a puller available specific to this > task > > > jason pollock > On Wednesday, January 15, 2003, at 10:03 AM, Krister Meister wrote: > > > > > Looking for step by step procedure on removing factory original wiper > > arms > > off the wiper arm hubs / spine what ever you would call them.
