Default New member with a annoying wiper issue

I have a 2000 Accord EX V6. My issue is my driver side wiper over extends into the molding on the side of the windshield and cowling at the bottom. I have no idea how to fix it. I repositioned the wiper arm several times and it's only gotten worse. The arm does not appear to be bent either.

Usually that's from a real loose bushing in the linkage underneath the cowl. To confirm, lift the wiper off the glass and it should have quite a lot of loose motion. Not sure how easy it is to get a look, but maybe a bushing on the end of the bars #9 & #10 in the picture?

Yeah, I bought an entire "wiper transmission" for my 99, and it fixed what I had (a blown out cup assembly). I got mine thru Rock Auto.
