Just wondering what’s involved in taking the windshield wiper arms off a 1970 Mercury Cyclone, probably the same as a Torino 

Thanks in advance 
Jim

Lift the wiper arm off the windshield.
There should be a little tab near the base. Pull it out/pry it out. it should keep the wiper arm raised up. This should also unlock the arm from the pivot. Now you can wiggle/jiggle the arm and it will come off the splined pivot.

They came off quite easily, helped with a flashlight and mirror to see underneath though

Thanks Again
