Best place to buy re-pop '72 wiper arms & blades?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

dougo · 10-25-2010, 10:44 PM

I'm looking to buy a set of wiper arms and blades for my '72. I have not been able to find a NOS set, or really nice set. It's hard to tell what quality I'm getting - if I were to order from a vendor online... so far I'm thinking GMC Pauls - they gave me a good description and spoke highly of their quality arms/blades and I trust them. Has anyone bought a set from them, and do you like the quality?

I believe the Trico arms are available from Napa. Try napaonline.com
I do know they (trico) are discontinuing the silver wipers, all will be black as soon as stock is washed out.

I've got a bunch of original Trico arms and blade holders, but not sure if you can find the blades anywhere anymore

Anco still makes blades to fit the Trico arms. Just have to pick the right length. I think mine are 16's.
