My car is a '58 and the wiper transmissions, plate/drum and motor have been rebuilt. In an attempt to install the right transmission, following Joe Calcagno's instructions from an older Restorer article, I can hook the upper cable to the drum, but not the lower. I had a friend push down on the stem and I pulled the cables
as instructed and still came up short on one. Questions - how hard does one pull and can this be done with fingers only. Will pushing down always unlock the cables and allow them to be lengthened or is this a one time thing? . My guess is I didn't pull hard enough to lengthen the cables. I'd like to figure this out before I attempt to do the left hookup. As always, thanks!
