    Nice vid....just want to let u know that there is a lever near the part of wiper blade that slides out but u have to flex up the blade on its hinge near the connecting point. While u flex the blade to its max point on hinge....the blade will pop right out. Cheers.

    My Haynes manual doesn't say how to replace these. Definitely saved my day with this video.

    I have 2 dodge rams, a 91 w150 and a 90 w250. Both of them the windshield wipers stopped working on. I have taken them to multiple different shops and have been told they can’t fix them. With what you just did I should be able to do it myself! Wtf would they say they can’t fix them?!

    Ok I need help !! I did this same thing because bushing were broke. Put it back together the drivers side goes up and down wich is fine but the passenger goes down towards the front hood I don’t get it ..

    • @autoraysgarage8938
      @autoraysgarage8938  4 года назад +2

      You might have to reinstall the passenger side arm again I’ll take it off and turn the wiper on and shut them off when the driver side is all the way up and reinstall the passenger side and see if it operates properly

    In other video he mentions the bushing 49447 for dodge ram gen1 and you the bushing 49449. Do you know the reason?

    • @autoraysgarage8938
      @autoraysgarage8938  4 года назад +4

      The Dorman 49447 is a assorted pack it comes with 3 or 4 different style bushing to fit Chrysler/Dodge, Ford and GM vehicles. The 49440 comes with just the Chrysler/Dodge style bushing for vehicle 1995-1974.

      If a new motor didn't work then sounds like you got a bad switch or relay causing it to stay on the slow speed setting

    Good day sir. Im having the same problem with my 91Ram. Did have to replace multiple bushings or was it just one?

    • @PoleCat-x5o
      @PoleCat-x5o 6 месяцев назад

      I've been working on mine. Try to find OE MOPAR nylon bushings, not Dorman. The made-in-China junk doesn't fit. OE type fits the best. Soften them first by soaking them in hot water for a few minutes. Replace all 4 bushings even if only one is broken. Mark the rods before you take them apart so you know how they go back together.
