Wiper arms & blades

[Bob Tilley]

2001 with old style arm & blades held on by small bolt & nut.  There’s a reply frm factory but it covers the articulating arm (wit 2nd smaller arm).  Any suggestion on replacement?  The arm springs are weak & rubber on blades hard

When I bought my 2000 last year the arms were similar to what describe.  I haven’t sourced replacements yet but I got them working like the should by spraying Kroil in the hinge points and working them to loosen up.  Then applied lube to springs and pivot points and they are much better.  Haven’t looked for blades yet.  I also found the clamp bolts frozen and need to see if I can get them loosened if I end up replacing the arms.

Thnk u.  Same thought  & might try someting like 303 rubber restorer’s on the blades. Nordic

factory has an old article but not old enough, parts list for articulating double arm blades.

I have a 2001 32 and I got new arms from Trotac marine up here in Victoria (mine broke when trying to get it to move freely). It was an adjustable length arm and they sell the blades too. The arm was $40
