THANKS MUCH. | | | | | Joined: Jul 2003 Posts: 586 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2003 Posts: 586 | Welcome to the forum Floyd. Your best bet is to just order them out of a catalog. Jim Carter has them for under $7. plus freight. If you don't have any yet, you should get several catalogs from various dealers. Then you too can drool over all the items you want.

The originals have the small hooks that go into a hole in the end of the arm. While they look neat, the original blades don't work that well. Tough getting them to stay flat against the glass and make a clean wipe. Here's a picture. [img] http://www.americanclassic.com/images/WW120.GIF[/img]

Well, it just dawned on me where. Here is a link to the tech section on chevytrucks.org regarding AD windshield wiper blades. http://www.chevytrucks.org/tech/wipers.htm You might want to send e-mail to Andrew Thor at andrewthor@email.msn.com and confirm the year of his truck. I hope this helps.  | | |
