evidently the 2A, 3A and 4A arms do not interchange?

That is affirmative my old friend.   Never seen a 4A up close, but the glass heights for the 2A and 3A are different...as is the mounting distance from the glass.  The reproductions out there are for a 2A.  You must ad material to the arm to make a 3A version.
1- 1946 CJ2A   
2- 1949 CJ3A

The 2A is the same length center to center as the MB (663648 and A-3748 at 6.25 inches)

Didn't the CJ3A have bottom mounter wipers, and the CJ4A had top mounted wipers, and I'm not aware if there was a manual option.

Apologies for not seeing this earlier, first day back to work “post” covid… I’m wiped Wink.  After a week of nothing to do but surf the web, i came home and fell asleep on the couch Embarrassed

I really appreciate the help.  Let me know what you find, that certainly looks legit Smile

Nor have I, Hawk, but the story is the 4A is slightly lower in the food chain than the M38-the uncontested "king of the flatfenders". Thumbs Up

Well, poo.... Cry

(pic "borrowed" from Sean, here ---> Link )

Does anyone know how the fixture that actually accepts the wiper is attached to the arm?  That looks correct except the length of the arm itself?

Thanks, Keith... I get the split rivet to the blade.  I'm wondering about how clip 17451 is fixed to the arm itself.  I have this wiper on my 2A but cannot tell if it's swaged, crimped, soldered, etc Confused

Athawk11 alluded to adding length to the repop, I'm wondering what would be involved in shortening one
