I need help identifying the parts in the pics. First pic, the washers are 1 5/16" in diameter and 3/16" thick. In the second pic, the big washers are 2.250" in diameter and 1/8" thick and no clue what the three other things are for either. Thanks.

The first picture looks like the washer/spacers that go under the seats.
The second "T" in the picture are door hinge bushings I believe.

I'm thinking first pic, thick washers, are rear seat, seat belt bolt washers. Second pic, thin washers are for the front inner fender rear splash shield screws. And I agree with Nacho on the bushings are for the wiper motor.

As soon as I posted the pic, I thought about the wiper motor. Is there rubber missing or is that all there is? Thanks.

Pretty sure they're not door bushings. I kept them separated for some reason.

No... I'm SURE they are wiper motor... I have a NOS set installed on my car when I changed to 3 speeds




rubber bushing can still be on motor itself

how big are the holes in the washers in the first pic? If they are 1/2" they may be the washers that go inside the trunk that holds the bumper brackets to the body...

Ooooh-kay.  :smilielol:
Do what you want, but if the bushings are too long, they will bottom out against the firewall and render the rubber spacers useless. Hence vibration.  ::)
But as I always say, it's your car.

I guess will depend if the rubber piece is still good

Need to see a better picture of the top ones , but I agree, maybe rear bumper bracket to body washers.

2nd pic the washers look cupped ? maybe later model shock washers . The inner fender splash shield ones are flat and considerably less than 1/8" thick. Not to mention they are captured on the screw itself

the 3 bushings are DEFINITELY wiper motor mounting
