Dorman 49447 Windshield Wiper Linkage Bushing Assortment Compatible with Select Models, 10 Piece

A little grinding and one of these plastics will replace the nylon bushing that seems to fail on Jeep JKs wiper linkage. It has been in place for 2 months and works without issue. This made a <$10 fix out of a $$$ fix.

It fit and works. Good assortment.

Great materials but I always do a total replace for all 4 inserts. There's only 2 in the package for a D250. The rest are for other applications. So my "next time pkg" became "this time." This is only reason for 4 stars nstead of 5.Good fit, worked great. I could insert the item in the linkage by pushing the linkage down onto the item using the tailgate until it popped into placeSo yes for me best approach is take 2 linkages and the wiper heads out of the truck as an assembly. Found I could slide everything as a unit out the passenger side through an oval access hole in the cowl. Helps to zip tie the linkage from motor to the crossover link both to take it out and install the assembly.So the only in truck work is using channel locks to put the link on the motor. Popping the links with new inserts on the wiper heads is done on the tailgate too. Then I zip tie the heads to the links and the links together loosely (to take load off the new inserts).You can slide this unit into the cowl area. Just take ur time, rotate, etc. Took about a third of the time of me installing new inserts when links and heads are in the truck.And remember Rain X is our friend. This and stock manual transmission are the weak links on these trucks IMO

The square one. So far holding up good. Few months.Heat gun (not too much) to soften it a bit, channel lock to "crimp" it on (or use your workbech to to lean on it to push it on the ball maybe). First time I didn't let it cool long enough before I manipulated it and it came off... re-did it and let it cool for about 10 mins. Stayed.A little all-purpose grease on the ball before putting the bushing on if you have it.

Modded one of the bushings for our Jeep's wiper linkage. Did the trick and saved many dollars!

Great if you can’t buy the specific bushing you need and you are handy. I modified one of these to work on my 2001 Forester. Extra bushings gave me 2 tries to get it right. Working well now. Plastic material and the injection molding is good quality.

An assortment of 10 varieties of bushings. Unfortunately it only had 2 of the 4 bushings that I needed so, rather than get another mostly useless “cluster-pack”, I wound up returning these and buying a 10-pack of the specific ones I needed. Now I have 6 bushings left over that I can actually use at about half the price.

Although they are not an exact fit for every application for every vehicle (with a little modification), they allowed me to fix a windshield wiper assembly for $8 that the dealer wanted $200 +/- for a replacement because they don't sell parts.
