Rear Wiper Arm

[MAS Tequila]

I bought the Dorman rear wiper arm from Rock Auto and it didn't quite fit right and didn't work correctly.

Has anyone found a replacement arm that will work and fit?

Or is it possible to replace the spring to get the needed tension on the arm?

The one that was shipped to me was made in China did not have Dorman on it and the piece from the mount to the pivot was shorter than the stock and would not let the piece go into the rest correctly so it would not function.

Mine was Dorman 42524 (from Amazon) and it fit correctly. The plastic support was slightly off, not perfectly aligned, but it worked.

Mine fit perfectly. How did it not fit or work correctly?

From the mounting point to where it bends, the length was different.

Did you had the same part number like I posted above?

According to Rock Auto it was the same. But like I said, it didn't say Dorman on it.
