Q: Rear wiper arm

The rear wiper arm is part of the collar that you are referring to. The arm and collar are made and molded together. Once you remove the retainer nut you can use a small puller to grab the arm and press in the center of motor shaft to remove the wiper arm. Sometimes you can wiggle the arm loose without a puller but not always.
