    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Well, here's the latest. Good news, I found the correct retro blades that will fit under the hood. Picked them up a local NAPA. He said he usually sells 2 or 4 year so he always keeps a few on hand. Fortunately, he still had a couple in stock. Bad news, they still don't fit under the hood...

    Thanks! I'll check NAPA. There's one nearby and it's the only brick and mortar parts store in my area that I haven't gone to yet.

    FOUND 73 Charger Wiper Blades

    I actually found those on that exact same site yesterday and bookmarked the page. They look like they might work but I can't tell if they'll stick up a bit too much because of the tension spring arms connecting the blades to the mounting arm. Tough to tell online (plus they're 50 bucks...)...

    Looking for a pair of wiper blades for a 73 Charger. The arms have the side pin attachment and they need to be pretty low profile to fit under the hood to rest in the park position. Thanks.

    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Just an update for anybody who's still interested... I got the new pivot and it's in great shape and has the pin for the tracking rod. I got all the linkage cleaned up and put back together with all new bushings. Everything went together pretty easy using some white lithium grease and my...

    Thanks for offering, I appreciate it, but I just ordered one off Ebay last night. Figured I'd save you the time checking on it. If this one falls through for some reason, I'll let you know. Thanks again!

    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Welp.......... I got a wiper arm removal tool and took the arms off. That went nice and smooth. However, once I got the arms off, I saw that the @#$%!& who put the wrong arms on also broke the pin off the driver side pivot so that they could fit said wrong arms on so now there is no way to...

    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Thanks! I found a set. Just got delivered today and they look ok. I got the set for just under $50 including shipping. I feel like that's not a bad deal. Hopefully they're good. They have the side pin attachments for the blades instead of the bayonet end. Looks like everything is there...

    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Thanks All for your replies and pics! Definitely helpful. At least I can confirm my suspicion that the car's got the wrong wiper arms on it...d'oh... I think, unfortunately, I'm just going to have to go with what I've got for now. Like I said, I barely use the wipers so the chrome trim...

    73 Charger Wiper Questions

    Ok, so what I thought was going to be a simple thing has (potentially) snowballed... My wipers stopped working because two of the nylon bushings on the wiper linkage disintegrated, as 50 year old nylon bushings tend to do. No big deal, I got some replacement bushings an was going to install...

    Hi All, Just joined the site so I figured I'd say "Hello". I've got a '73 Charger SE, 318/904, automatic. It's in pretty good shape overall but needs some work - as most of them do. Not a show car but a decent driver/20-footer. I got this car just about five years ago now and it's been...
