jimmyrjm Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Hi All, I'm restoring a Triumph GT6 mk3 and I came across these -(see pictures below) and I don't know what they are used for and where they are positioned in the car? If anyone can clarify this that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Wiper wheel boxes. ie what your wiper arms attach to, and these are connected to the wiper motor via the "rack" and tubing. Missing its back, which is important...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Yes, wipers and, dare I say, passed their best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricks96 Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 Is this a joke....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted June 28, 2016 Report Share Posted June 28, 2016 If you have never come across a car with a rack drive wiper then its a perfectly sensible question Cant see that any wise cracks help here, pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyrjm Posted June 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Is this a joke....?Well you seem like a C**K! This is my first restoration of a classic and I'm guessing you are probably triple my age! So sod off! And thank you Pete, I have never come across one before. And I have the plates for the back Clive but might replace them as Doug mentioned they are a passed their best. Kind regards. Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Don't worry Jim, I quite often make jokes, well I think they're jokes, others are not so sure. Perhaps the remark was directed at me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougbgt6 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Good point Jim, less on this site than others, I have to say, but there are a few What really annoys me is "I'm in desperate trouble! Help me!" You give them a pointer tell them who to contact and..........................................never heard of again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishmosh Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 If you buy new check they are the same. It's a common part on 60 s classics and they do vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
