Excessive play on LH balljoint on wiper mechanism.

 

Tried rubberbands but seems to be getting worse.

 

Can anyone detail repair using bolt to remove play.

 

How do you strip down to carry out repair.

 

What parts of mechanism do you remove.

 

Please detail modification to repair.

Don't bother repairing it until the balljoint comes off. Then disconnect the balljoint by taking the hex nut off and connecting arm, then drill a 6mm hole at the base if the balljoint and the same size hole in the base of the socket which is plastic. put a 6mm bolt through the base socket and the balljoint but before this apply lots of araldite. reconnect the arm with the hex socket. Let it dry. Mine has been ok for the last 6 months.

regards
