which side for long and short wiper arm - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I failed to mark which side the wiper arms were on when I replaced the wiper motor.
I did a search on here but the one inquiry I read all that responded said theirs were the same length left and right.
My is not I'm hoping someone here can help so I can button up my truck. Thanks!

I think he may mean the wiper arms that hold the blade not the wiper link from motor to transmission. That is just what I got from his question.

Thanks Vidman but Hugger is right I'm referring to the actual wipers themselves.
I ended up installing the longer wiper arm on the drivers side.

I didn't know there was a short and long wiper arm. Mine are both the same length on my 68 and 69 trucks. Were there different lengths on the 67 or 70-72 years?
