Wiper linkage and crank arm? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

My shop manual says, "Disconnect wiper linkage from wiper crank arm ...."

The only diagram has the word "linkage", but it isn't clear what the word refers to.

Can anyone direct me to a diagram that shows me which parts these are or explain the difference to me?

There is an "arm" attached to the back of your wiper motor. The linkage attaches to that arm and the posts that your wipers are on.

Here is the photo with numbered lines pointing to possibilities for the arms and linkages.

Is the long thing that B is pointing to the arm and are 4 the linkages with 3 being the posts that my wipers are on?

Yes, it will become very apparent if you unbolt the wiper motor. "B" won't it out.
