Windshield wiper link assembly

So, I have ordered a total of 3 wiper link assemblies from LMC. 2 ( 36-4044 )of them had the correct arms to connect to the wiper motor but the pivots are too short.
1 ( 36-4046 ) had the correct pivots but the motor side connector was a rubber pop-on that does not fit the wiper motor.

Has anyone ever had to replace this part, and where did you find it?

My solution so far was to cut the ends off and connect the correct link to the incorrect arm. It works and will last a lifetime but it bothers me.

I bought used ones from a guy in Jonestown pa and a guy in Massachusetts. The guy in Massachusetts has cucv parts, so I get a bunch of stuff off of him. I have bought rear window cranks for the 1009 from lmc and have been good, those are hard to come by.

This evening I got it all back together and working properly. I had to engineer the two connecting arms together so I had a good connection to the wiper motor and I had the correct wiper pivots. Now I have newer wiper arms with j hooks as well.

Now I just need to find the connector for the park circuit wires.
