Installed mine last night. $36.00 from Amazon for everything. Painted them up tan and looks great. I accidently tossed the plastic wedge shim that goes under the arm when it goee into the blade adapter away. Me and the boy spent a 1/2 hour with the trash can dumped doing a grid search. Ended well though.

how do the air motors work with the bigger wipers? and i defiantly have to get them...i'll look through the thread for napa part numbers
Air motors work just fine.
While I was installing the wipers I finally got around to installing the washer kit I picked up from TedG (thanks Ted, works great!) and replaced my aged wiper motor air lines as well.

Also, for what it's worth, I picked the arms and blades up at O'Rielly's.

i used ten inch wipers they work great i used the stock arms just by drilling a small hole for a screw to fasten them to the arms.


I thought about that also after I pulled the arms off (like that term!) and noticed they could be easily modified. But I figured I'd use the new ones since I bought and painted them.
Nice lights on the cab, are they halogen, 12 or 24V?
