Default Wiper Removal

On a 07 Mustang which is not going to be a daily driver I am trying to remove the wipers. Cannot get them to budge off those press fit tapered shafts. Even tried a small gear puller. Am I missing something? Anyone done this? Fill me in. Thanks

I have removed the nuts your mention in your description. Arms won't budge. Guess Ford over torques. Thanks

You need the ford tool.
Go to your stealership and
see if they will loan it to you.
