    73 Wiper Arm Tension

    Is there a way to decrease the amount of force the wiper arms push the wiper blades onto the windshield with? My blades are being pushed so hard that the side of the wiping tips are touching the windshield. The arms to not appear to have any unusual bends.

    Other than bending the arms, there's no adjustment as it's a design function of the springs in the arms vs. the geometry of the arms + the wiper blade holders & the construction of the rubber blade inserts. I've seen similar problems that 'evaporated' when aftermarket, generic, blade holders & rubber inserts were used and replaced with factory original style blades....
