Wiper arm plate

Anyone know where I can get one of these? It's the plate that mounts to the front of the coach and then the wiper arms attach. I tried to call Newmar but they are closed. I will call tomorrow but we are leaving Sunday and I would really like to get this fixed.

I see "wiper arm adaptor" that looks like it. Some show 4" and some 3 7/16". Not sure what the measurement pertains to. Center of hole to center of hole? Overall length?

It should be the exact same part. I think you'll find that 4" is the total length and 3 7/16" should be the distance between the two holes for the screws.

Newmar, I believe, used Autotex components during that time with their pantographic wipers.

There's two plates available ...one that is used for a "wet wiper" arm and one without. Yours appears to have the "washer" so you'd need the part 200242 (200241 is the same without the washer kit).

Edit seems thereof was typing same time.
Knowing the names of things is half the battle. I Google searched pantographic wiper mount. I seem to hit the nail on the head. I'll let you get a little closer to determine if it's right. The links to these will take you to places and Supply bus wiper Parts Etc.

It looks like you have some options now. I found truck wiper parts at Midwest Bus Parts

Thanks everyone!

I had found those parts. I ordered the "wet" one earlier from Amazon. I am supposed to get it tomorrow. If it's wrong, I can return it.

I'll still call Newmar tomorrow when they open. I live an hour and 15 minutes from them so if they tell me it's different (or I find out from the part I ordered), I can drive to get it.

Thanks again!

Just to complete the circle, the part I ordered is in the link. Same one others suggested. It worked great although the base was a touch smaller than the original, no biggie.
