Description

Had a broken gear in the wiper gear box for a 1996 Nissan 300ZX not allowing the windshield wipers to operate consistently. Used the Gear Generator For Customizer V2.0, then modified it to match the broken one. Fit is a bit tight, but works well. Printed @ .2 layer height, 3 shells, and 100% infill (for strength), with support. Seems to be pretty common gear setup on most wiper boxes so may work with other cars/trucks as well. Included the blank gear from the generator as well just in case it's close to what you need so that it can be modified accordingly.
