Topic: 50 wiper arm removal

  I bought the green 49-51 shop manual and page 201 talks about lifting off the wiper arms...well, mine don't 'lift' quite that easily. Rather than brute force, I thought I better ask you guys...any trick or are they just stuck after many years?

  Most of them are a press fit over a splined hub. More often than not, they are firmly stuck and require some "persuasion".

  As strange as it may sound, try tapping on the arm post. Sometimes that may free it up.

  actually I did tap on them and used a little 'cats paw' pry bar to pop them off...mission accomplished! I'll post some photos in a week or so after I'm done with the re-paint. thanks to both of you
