Anyone have the retainers that hold the link to the pivot arm? The arm on my 1969 Dart keeps popping off.

In the part book it is listed as.

236780

Might also need the washer

236782

2 each so I can replace both ends.
 
they have those at napa,oriellys etc.not hard to find....
 
Repeating failure of wiper linkage connections might be due to restrictions in the pivot post assemblies. The cast housing has only a short bronze bushing at each end. The void between the bushings will fill with rusty crud. Eventually the portion of the shaft inside the bushings rusts too. Bushing wear, shafts wear. Pivot become nearly impossible to turn.
Properly restored wipers can run smooth and quietly, even on a dry glass.
It is a heck of a lot of work to do though.
Good luck
