My near side windscreen wiper spindle thread has sheared off so unable to get the hex nut back on. I’ve bought a new spindle to replace it

Trouble is having great difficulty in removing the old spindle, I’ve removed the nipple section quite easily which joins on the the motor arm, but now can seem to separate the spindle from the upper bar which holds the threaded spindle to the wiper.

There appears to be a nut at the bottom of the spindle which is difficult to get to. Question is how do I remove the spindle from the support bar
 
Unsure what you mean, but the spindle has a clip holding it in the tube.
