Vacuum Wiper rebuild

[nj_thusar]

Hello Again -

I know there is an old post for the rebuild of the vacuum wipers, but has anyone who's gasket disintegrated have any luck? I've been at it for a few days and can't get a good enough seal to get my driver side wiper to go. Alone it won't even do its thing. Any pointers/experience?

Thanks!

I remember someone using a thin gasket material and RTV to create the seal. There used to be a rebuild kit with gaskets and a paddle rebuild kit.

I found one gasket on eBay for 10$. Fingers crossed!

Hi, Ficken Wiper service rebuilt my wipers many years ago. They came out much better than I could imagine. They still look great, and work like, well, vacuum wipers. Good luck
