UD CWA45 wiper pivot

This won't help you at all but might entertain you a wee bit? 
Thirty odd years ago I was working in a Resource Centre in Central Australia (outback) as a teacher/printer and a gear was stripped in the print room A3 collator.
As a new gear would cost $84 dollars, and would take several weeks to arrive, I decided to strip down an A4 collator. Basically so I could use the gear from that one for the job I was doing . . .
. . . except it was a different size! In desperation I went out to the tip (approximately five acres of derelict cars) and ended up using a gear salvaged from a wiper motor. :ohmy: Worked brilliantly!
You got to be lucky (if a little persistent) sometimes!?
