    Does anyone have a source for the springs on the 71 cj5 wiper arms? One of mine is broken.

    Quick answer is no. I sourced an appropiate size/tension sping from a well-stocked hardware store, but it was steel and lasted less than 6 months before it was too rusted to hold tension. A stainless spring is needed. That spring also stained my windshield glass with iron oxide. My application was for my Willys Wagon, but is pretty close to what you were asking about.
