How to remove air wiper motors

I always called them a castle socket. Is this not the same?

What's wrong with saying spanner wrench lol you not going to remove the packing from a excavator cylinder with a tooth socket (spanner socket) you are going to use a spanner wrench either the pin type or the slot type

O' nothing, I was just piping off

Every region / country will have a different name for it.

Castle nuts are different than the spanner nuts you use a cotter pin with castle nuts

If you were in Japan! Most Japanese / Asian cars / motorcycles have castle nuts that look exactly like his nut on the windshield wiper.

Used without cotter pin as a jam nut.

lvrbus, you're right hmm
Darkspeed, good call. I was a mec-tech at a Dotson dealership (now Nissan) back in the 70's, That's where I was introduced to the castle nut.
eagle19952, the top one looks like the one I use to change the disk in my 4 1/2" grinder.
The crescent wench deal, I've never seen.

Im guessing the crescent was made by someone who can either fly a plane or a helicopter or both... just a guess..

Scott & Heather · August 26, 2015, 07:08:00 PM

And so I got so tired of all this spanner wrench talk, I just used my brute force strength and a vise grip. Done

rebuild kit ordered from Luke and on its merry way to me as we type.

Can't beat good old American made Vise/Grips

Scott, I hope you have better luck than I did. I rebuilt both my air motors and I haven't had wipers since. I won't have wipers until I get back to the Chattanooga garage this winter.

Very simple they say! Yup, it was simple...

They are......mark location of lines and ports, do one at a time, parts go together in a particular way, and have a factory service manual if you are planning on keeping coach more than a week. Some people think only idiots need service manuals, they are a costly luxury, they can figure things out without them, or jump on the forums every time they are stuck.
