Changing the rear wiper on a Jeep JK.

1.  Go to Walmart and buy a 13" wiper blade for $5. 

 

2.  Remove the installed pivot plastic that is used to mount the blade to a normal wiper arm by moving it counter-clockwise on the pivot point until it pops out.

 

3. You'll have a wiper blade that can now be installed on the rear wiper arm via the pivot point.

3.  Now onto the install.  Standing on something to put you at an appropriate height, pull the wiper arm out from the window as far as possible (about 3 inches at the midpoint of the wiper blade). Put your left hand fingers in between the wiper arm and wiper blade on the motor side as far into the space between the two as possible.

4.Push with your right thumb against the wiper blade housing on the non-motor side until the wiper blade snaps out of the wiper arm.

5.You will now have a wiper arm with the clips visible for reinstall of the new wiper blade.  

6.  Snap the new wiper into the clip on the wiper arm at the pivot point.

7.  Check to make sure the wiper clears both the wiper mounts and lower window trim (if you got a 13" wiper, it will).

8.  Pour yourself a whiskey.
