Does anyone know of a replacement clip for the windshield wiper linkage on a 77 FJ40?
My linkage won't stay attached to the motor.
Thanks
 
City racer has replacement clips for $18 each or you could just do what I did for essentially free. Drilled a small hole here and inserted a self tapping screw with a wide head to secure the linkage on. Has Worked great for many years now on my 76. Seems to be a problem with many Japanese vehicles, fixed a Honda this way a few months back that had the same issue.

I got my 1979 40 in a box so did not know the linkage and motor arm need to be parallel so the wiper goes upwards from park position:
If it is other than below the arm (from park position) goes down and then up, first test and see what it does after install because it tries to destroy the arm (hear a sinister laugh in the distance)
