I just finished putting on my new cab[ Cozy Cab] an electric wiper kit. I put the wiper assembly on to far to one side. I have tried to remove it to center the wiper better but cannot get the dam thing off the shaft which is splined. Is there a tool or procedure to get it off? Any help would be nice

Check an auto parts store for a puller, I've seen plier type and puller types.
Some stores have a free tool loaner program. AutoZone where I am at does.

DON'T try and just force the wiper arm. The splines will be wiped out of it and it will be ruined. I had a Chevy Impala that one wiper blade flopped all over the place. I think the former owner ruined it and did not tell me, I found out the first rain :mad:

Thanks very much for thr info. I knew that there must be something and you probably saved the dam thing.

If you can get it to raise up and lock back like car wipers, you can put a small wooden wedge on the windshield and pry it with a screwdriver working it around slowing in 360 degree circle and it will finally pop off, if you cant find the proper tool that is.

The ones we sell have a small spring clip that locks onto a groove under
the splines. Possibly your wiper arm is made this way.

In the same boat. Mine is an Original Tractor Cab. The splined shaft on the wiper arm has a small tin clip on the bottom of the splined shaft of the arm. Installing I put the bottom of the splined shaft on first at an angle keeping the clip going on last. Planning on trying to extract in the reverse order but planning on a broken clip that will need to be dealt with later. A puller will not work as the cap over the splined shaft has no hole to use a puller. If needed it may get a small hole drilled in it.
