     All
     
     When I bought my TR6 the wiper rubbers were shot and I purchased a new 
     set from TRF.  I had to pull the whole system out in order to put the 
     new rubbers on.
     
     Now I have a problem with them (same old story).  I've tightened the 
     retaining nut up as tight as I dare to keep the wiper heads from 
     moving but, particularly the one on the right hand side looking out, 
     wobbles itself when they are turned on.
     
     The problem could be that there is not enough torque on the retaining 
     nut (although I'm worried I will tear through the thin part of the 
     softer rubber that holds the windscreen washer nozzle.  Or it could be 
     that I swapped the old LHS head to the right.  Or there is indeed a 
     LHS and RHS head and the tubing holding between the heads is only long 
     enough to fit the proper combination.
     
     Any suggestions?
