Hello!

The other day some scrote decided to rip the rear wiper arm off the back off my car. So I'm left with the piece that is bolted on to the spindle. I've got a replacement to fit, and I had a quick go, and it was a bit of a nightmare. Firstly is the thread reversed? (I know twisty things can be sometimes), because turning anti or clockwise it won't budge. I've sprayed some WD40 on and i'll give it a bash a bit later on. Any tips?

Thanks

Nope, its just a normal thread.

Soak it in WD40/Penetrating oil over night, and then try.

Or just cut the nut off and buy another.

Don't want to de-wiper to be honest, will try soaking it in WD40 and hope for the best...

you need to be patient with the rear wiper arm,because of some rust and calcification it take time to take it out,so give it time,and you will be ok :),good luck.
