Can someone post a photo of the ball bearing at end of armature on the wiper motor near the brush holder?

I have read about it, but the two motors I own do not have one. They just have a plastic set screw in the middle of the brush holder.

I asked the same question years ago.

My instructions on rebuild/reassembly mention a bearing, but there is only the plastic screw so the instructions I have are incorrect.

The armature bearing is on the other end of the armature.

I hope this help, it is from when I serviced the one on my '72 so my motor is first gen.
