im sorry if the moderators ahve to move this post but i didnt know where to post this.

Im having a probelem with my wipers, i put on new blades, not just the insetrs but the blades but the pieces that attach to the arms, and i cant get them to work propperly, the wipers dont clear the bottom half of my windshield and they dont even touch, the are lifting up off of the windshield, if anyone can help please tell me where to get the blades or arms etc

Thank you very much

Check to see that they are sitting flat on the windshield - sometimes those big *** blades curl up a bit causing this. Mine did that after I changed them, too.

LOL, yeah I had the same exact problem, like a few days ago.

The aftermarket wiper arms I have don't flex as good as the stockers. Our windows have some mean curve to them, pick up your aftermarket one and compare how much less it flexes and counters to the shape of the windshield compared to the stock wiper arm. You can see this buy pushing in the center of the blade..........

This being said, I bought inserts and it works 100%. I only buy inserts for my blades, and if you need a new wiper arm, I'd get a GM replacement......

Trico 24-9r Wiper blades worked well for me.

If it doesn't have something direct to do with the engine, it doesn't belong on "LT1/LT4 Engine Tech". Let's move it to "General F-Body Tech & Info".......
