Wiper arm removal tips???
 
I have been trying to remove the wiper arms on my '69 3/4 ton without success. Manual says to bend the arm upright which is supposed to release the arm allowing it to be pulled right off. Not working!!! Any ideas besides ruining them?

I have a snap on tool. They work the same though.

theres a tab at the base of the arm that needs pressing for easy arm removal
