Wipers park to high.

My wiper arms are parking to high. I looked at some pics of the car before I tore it down and the wipers parked down at the bottom of the windshield. I tried a spare wiper motor That one wouldn't park at all. I read Bentworkers thread and greased up both gear boxes. No change to either boxes parks to high and no park. Removed wiper linkage out cowl to check it wasn't a linkage clocking problem.

Am I mistaking shouldn't the wipers tuck down under the hood after parking?

You should be able to remove them and reposition them. I ran my wiper motor for about ten minutes w/o the wiper arms, then turned it on and off a few times to check the position before installing the wiper arm.

The wiper arms are adjustable, the procedure for setting them is in the service manual. I don't have access to mine right now, but if you have the manual it's a pretty straight forward task.

Yes, there's several degrees of adjustment on the arms where they mount on the pivot shaft.
