Default Wiper motor gromets

I have a 95 Tahoe and the wiper motor gromets died last winter. I went to the local parts store and they said they are not in the book. They are not shown it my copy of chiltons either. They are black rubber, about 1 inch diameter with a 3/8 hole. in profile they have a "H" shape. The remains of the one I have left have the letters LU and 6Fthere is a metal gromet that goes through it. I tried to make them from a shock bushing but the tork of the wiper motor was too much for them. Anyone have or knows where I can find a set?

You need to buy a new wiper motor.

Default Wiper manufactrers

The wiper motor and linkages are fine. It seem silly to have to replace all at a cost of close to $100.00 for a few cents worth of rubber and pot metal. Who is the manufacurer of these? Perhaps I can request just the gromets
