B body wiper spindle seals/ gaskets.

Post by 68Roadrunner »

Does anybody know what the two black sticky strips are in this photo,
Came with the gasket set, I can only assume they wrap round under the the round black spindle seal to stop it dropping down in situ.

Hi Richard. The two black sticky strips are caulk strips that go around the base of the linkage assembly to seal it against the firewall.

Well it just goes to show we learn something new everyday,
When I’ve fitted these in the past I’ve disregarded these seals but have run sealer round the base.
Thanks a lot Gareth.👍
