Trico Vacuum Wiper Assembly

[39deluxe]

Looking for help putting together a bag of wiper parts that somebody else disassemblied. The car is a 31 Buick Roadster that has been a constant struggle but I'm getting to the end finally. If anybody has any pictures or illustrations or where I can find help that would be great. I only remember adding some oil to soften the leather.

Unfortunately he won't work on the early vacuum wipers. I sent him the wiper from my '30 and he was unwilling to even open it for inspection. I ended up going to a RCX-9 which is a slightly more modern version that looks nearly identical and mounts to the same bracket.

Thanks,

Grant,

Thanks, now I have something to work with. Looking forward to spring!

Good on you Denny! Be careful with the gasket, and don't forget to oil the switch and valve!
