UGH! What is up with this truck! (wipers)

[jsbihn]

so there is no way to repair the part that is causing the issue without replacing the whole unit?
Just cant see spending 200 bux for a new motor if this one works proper but say the piece that connect the arm to the motor is stripped and I could fix the piece for cheaper then 200 bux

(ie. i have repaired the shift linkage issue on my truck with a 25 cent nylon nut that i got at an auto parts store versus having to buy a whole new linkage assembly for 125 bucks since the only way to get the oem nylon piece that holds the linkage assembly was to buy the assembly.... and when that fails (if it does) I will replace it with the 12 dollar piece that i made that will NEVER break)

I know it sounds cheap... but I have to watch my wallet in this damn economy. Plus again, I love knowing I fixed something (especally for less) and that there is a little more "Me" in the truck and a little less "OEM"
