RE: wiper arms



I was wrong. It's the blade holder that has the wing and not the arm. I 
have been able to find refills that work though. The tension on my wiper 
arm feels kinda weak. I'm going to try to figure out how to increase 
that pressure.

Rich Kinsley '64 Dodge Polara 4dr 318poly w/goodies


----
Please address private mail -- mail of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.  I.e., send parts/car transactions and negotiations as well as other personal messages only to the intended recipient, not to the Clubhouse public address. This practice will protect your privacy, reduce the total volume of mail and fine tune the content signal to Mopar topic.  Thanks!
