i do i get to the wiper linkage? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

The thread has broken off where the passenger side wiper hooks up. I've started to take off the dash but it looks like there is no way to get it out of there. I could pull it once i unhook it front the window motor, but i don't know how i'm going to get it back in.

anyone done this before?

I just went back out there to see if i could make sense of what your saying. I've got a tin top so it could be different on my rig. i can't unbolt mine, it's got a seam holding it in. Even if i do pull it i don't think it's going to make a difference. Am i misunderstanding?

if you get the dash completely out of there, you should be able to access things from a large-ish hole. get some parts out of the boneyard and get to work! good luck.

You've got to pull the dash all the way out, then pull the bracket that the three top screws (of the dash) go into.
