  • Wanted: F-body wiper arms

    I need a set of LS1 F-body wiper arms. It's to damn hard to find the wipers for the '94 so I'd rather just put new arms on the car and buy regular wipers.

    The picture is to show the difference between the ends where the wiper attaches.

    I've got the ones off my '96 sitting around right now. Those are the ones with the air dams on them, right? I broke them last spring and bought new ones (OUCH!), but have since put different arms on. Shoot me a line if you can use them. Used for maybe 3 weeks, max.

      It is a pain in the ass, I found a really good source though, Somehow WALMARTS sells NEOFORM and TEFLON wipers for our years.

      I am going to be buying some very soon i just found out last week when i was walking around bored. There 38 dollars for the pair for Neoform And 30 for teflon for the pair

        The ones on the '94 used to have the air dams on them. I broke one last winter with the ice scraper so I just took them off. You have a set of the old arms or the old blades?

            I don't use GM blades. I have replaced just the inserts before but the wipers themselves look like crap because of the sunlight and use.

              I've got the arms, air dams and all. I'm pretty sure I threw the blades on the new arms, but the originals are in new condition.

                  I think you guys misunderstood what I'm looking for. I'm looking for a set of wiper arms off a 98+ so I don't have to search so hard when I need wipers. I have the LT1 style arms on the '94 and want 98+ arms.

                    Search so hard? How hard is it to go to the local auto store and buy wiper blades? In the 4 years that I've owned my car I've never had a problem finding wiper blades for it. I go into Murrays or Autozone, they've got books for which size is correct for our vehicles (22"?) and then I just buy whatever blade I want that's the right size.

                      Not a single place in Big Rapids carries them. We have a napa, carquest, advanced, autozone, meijers, and walmart here. The thing needs wipers right now and I can't get my hands on a set here.

                        Seriously? None of them have like 22" blades? It's either 22" or 24" I thought. I've used all different brands and never had any problems.

                            I've always had a hard time finding blades!!!, seems nobody in Lapeer carries them for our years either. Never thought of switching to the 1998 and up blades, seems like a good idea to me...

                              They aren't just standard 22's or 24's. You have to get a certain model with a different framing to clear the arm because the arm wraps under the wiper. Our Rain-X book at work doesn't even list them having a model to fit the 93-97 Camaro.
