Windshield Wiper Arm Shaft with Bearing and Crank
Sold each – 2 required per car

The OE Match Windshield Wiper Arm Shaft with Bearing and Crank is a replacement component for the windscreen wiper mechanism.

Fits:

• Porsche 356B 1959-63
• Porsche 356C 1963-65

This assembly connects the wiper linkage to the external wiper arm, allowing the motor's movement to operate the windscreen wipers smoothly and reliably.

What Does It Do?

The shaft transfers movement from the wiper linkage to the wiper arm. The bearing supports smooth rotation, while the crank connects the shaft to the operating linkage.

Why Does It Fail?

Common causes include:

• Corrosion and seized shaft bearings
• Wear from repeated wiper operation
• Deterioration of internal bearing surfaces
• Damaged or loose crank connections
• Moisture entering the mechanism

When Should It Be Replaced?

Replace if the shaft is seized, excessively worn, bent or damaged.

Common symptoms include slow or uneven wiper movement, excessive play, unusual noises or a wiper arm that fails to operate correctly.

Checks & Diagnosis

Inspect the shaft, bearing, crank and connecting linkage for wear, corrosion or restricted movement.

Check that the wiper motor operates correctly and that both wiper arms move freely without binding.
