Today’s Corvette technical question comes from a C3 Corvette owner
How do I adjust the windshield wipers on my 1976 Corvette:
Answer: The wiper arms (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=577) fit into a specific groove on the wiper arm transmissions coming through the top of the cowl, therefore no adjustment exists on the exterior of your 1968-1982 Corvette. The

adjustments for your wiper arm locations are found on the backside of the Corvettes wiper motor (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=583) where the link arms attach to the wiper motor ball stud. This can easily be found on 1973-1982 Corvettes where access is granted, on 1968-1972 Corvettes the wiper door (http://www.zip-products.com/Zip/dept.asp?dept_id=578) may need to be removed or lifted in the very highest position. Once the nuts are loosened, the wiper link arms will “slide” to allow for proper adjustment. The nuts can be tightened once the arm locations are adjusted enough to make sure the wiper blades do not hit when returning to their inside position.
