99 OBW, wiper transmission problem

Featured Replies

My 99 has a bad bushing in the wiper transmission. I replaced the broken bushing with one designed for a Nissan from my local parts store. None available for Subaru. Well, that worked for about a week, until the replacement bushing pulled apart. I am guessing that buying a replacement wiper transmission is the only solution.............unless someone has a less expensive solution. I can buy a transmission off e-bay motors for about $48.00

 

Any advise please.

Do you have a picture of the one you need?

I know you can get the linkage rods with new bushings from the dealer.

I checked with the dealer, bushings available only when purchasing linkage rods. Bushings not available otherwise.

 

I bit the bullet, and ordered new wiper transmission from ebay seller. $42 delivered, best I could do.
