RE: wiper arms

[William Harrison <bbjt3@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rich
Once the springs start to lose their tension the arms are pretty well shot.
Mine rusted and broke.
I looked into installing a new spring on my old blades but decided to go with replacement arms.
I kept one of my old blades and looked at it after your post about the wings and it had the wing on  it. I don't know of any one re poping them.
Later
