It's getting close to a year since I posted on this thread. I still have the Rain-X blades on my SCrew and in Texas, that's just about unheard of. Our heat here kills everything including wiper blades. Mine still work just as good as the first day. If they ever die, I'll be using the Rain-X again.

 

Talk about Ironic, just replaced mine today after about 2 years. They were on sale at work (Target) for 17.99 for the Latitudes down from 19.99. I was waiting for a sale.

 

bosch icons. i like them, ive had em for a while. dont forget to go to a 21 inch blade and put the driver side one up a click or two so it looks more even.

 

Duralasts on both the F150 and Ranger. I have no complaints.

 

I clocked mine up a bit too. Can't stand that uneven look.

 

I'm still really loving the neoforms on my truck and I'm personally set for now, but my girlfriend was griping so I got a set for her and a new set for my other car. Also picked up a rear wiper for her. I stuck with wipers123com since they have a coupon and free shipping on their home page.

 

how do i adjust them? like you said put the driver side up a click or two. mine only clicked one place on the 21 inch rainx blades. maybe i did some thing wrong some how. lol but it only allowed me to to use one position. its a 04 f150 xlt if that helps any.

also whats the biggest blade you can fit on the trucks

 

I use Anco winter blades all year on my truck. I got two years out of the last set.

 

I still have the factory blades on my '05. The truck has never been driven in the rain, so I don't know if they work well or not. The only time the wipers on this truck are even turned on is when they get swept across the windshield during my annual state safety inspection.....:o

 

i wish i knew what it was like to never drive in the rain. it seems like it raisnlike 4 days a week here

 

I think he's saying to remove the arm and reset it a bit higher on the shaft.

 

Running Bosch Icons, only cuz they had a buy one, get one free sale. Use Rain-X before that. I usually get maybe 6months out of blades, the snow/ice kills them during the winter and mud/bugs kill them in the summer.

 

Pull the wiper arm off the windshield in the up position. This will allow you to pull the little lever (near the shaft) down unlocking the wiper from the shaft. Pull the wiper off, remove the key that keeps the wiper from being clocked then with a bit of trial and error, put the wiper on the shaft clocking it where needed to look even.

trico neoforms here. just saw their first ice/snow today and was very pleased

 

Truck is 6 years old and have had best luck with Rainx blades are on my second pair, the stock blades lasted less than a year, they made so much noise skipping and jumping you could not stand being in the cab.
