Re: ‘96 U295 Windshield Wipers
Reply #5 –
A few years ago I had to replace some parts of the wiper system, the posts and the arms. From that experience, one of the ways to access the wiper motor and the mechanism to the posts is to swing the CB panel in front of the passenger seat out of the way. It is held in place with a few wood screws. Disconnect the batteries and kill all the electric first. There is enough wire to the panel that will allow you to move it out of the way. You may also have to remove the padded dash, it is held in place by velcro. FT used 2 pieces of thin plywood to make mine and it is easy to bend in the middle and the plywood is just butted together. I also had to remove the instrument panel hood first in order to remove the dash panel. Use care not to bend the panel. Check the nuts on the posts that hold the arms in place first, if they come off or loose the arm can get out of position.
