Default 94 Windshield Wipers ?
I just upgraded my windshield wiper arms and blades to the 96 type. Now, the passenger side arm is hitting the hood when it goes to home position

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any and all help,

Chris

I just upgraded my "89" with the "96" arms and blades and the passenger side just barely clears the underside of the hood.

Bogus,

Thanks for the response.

Looks like I'll need to go up a 1/2" or so?

In 95 the changes were made so the wipers wouldn't chatter across the windshield...not sure what exactly they did to them tho jsut changed the pitch or something I guess.
