1973 Brave need replacement wiper assembly

Looking for possible replacement assembly for the entire wiper arm since the spring is stretched and my 6 wiper keeps getting stuck under the window.

Suggestions?

BTW I'm in fairbanks alaska and our parts stores are limited and rv junk yards are none existent, save a few rotted-out RVs in people's yards....

You could try emailing some of these salvage yards for a replacement part, but the age of your RV might make it difficult.

Winnebago didn't have custom parts made for your RV, it is most likely a wiper mechanism used in other vehicles. If you pull the mechanism, or just take the arm off the shaft, perhaps an auto parts store can identify a matching replacement.

Also, while Winnebago doesn't show a parts list for a 1973, perhaps the 1975 or later catalog can help you identify the supplier.

There is an older 70s brave being parted out in Minneapolis area. Tried to post a link but didn't work. Go to Minneapolis Craigslist, for sale, enter winnebago and it is a June 8th posting.
