Default Wiper Clashes

I purchased my first Corvette, a 96 Coupe, about six months ago. Why did I wait sooo long?

However, the wiper clashes are a real problem Seems a lot of people know about it but I can't find any information to get it solved other than removing the right side wiper. I have purchased and installed all of the correct GM blades and arms to no avail. Surely GM didn't ship the car with this problem? Can someone please give me some clues here.

Thanks,
Jim

I had the problem on my C4 also - adjusted the linkage to compensate for wear, and never had the problem again. This was a few years ago, and I don't have the diagrams on how to adjust linkage, but you should be able to dig it up in the C4 forum.
