    My stock blades, although brand new, (Shoebox Central) are awful... does anybody know of a "type"/"manufacturer" that has a blade that will fit in the very small blade crimps??? and still does a good job ??

    Call Newport Engineering. They have great wiper arms and blades.....and the angle of the arm is adjustable.

    Yes, the stock blades are 11", but the 12" still work. Blade mounts don't flop around and noticable more pressure..thanks Rockable

    I got my blades & arms from Concours Ford Parts and am not happy with the pressure. Plus the rivets are made of chinesium and are rusting.
