Rear Wiper Mod For 07,08,09, 03-06

I don't use the wiper at all

I don't use mine either, or I can't rather, it hasn't worked since I bought the truck. I just rain x the back window and I have no problems seeing out of it clearly. I'm shaving the rear wiper arm to clean up the back a little bit.

lol...I've never used it at all...or with my previous 4runner

Its getting better, I think it just had a funky spot in it from sitting in the package maybe. I use mine alot. It works, and the rear window gets impossible to see through in a MN winter.

I have a quick question. I'm new to here. Bout would a 3 gen rear bumper fit a 2003. Just curious. I like the new bumpers and tail lights too.

dont know how i missed this...the tails fit with socket modification cuz they arent as large as the 03-06 sockets...bumpers? no clue...diff angles but i would guess that they have the same alignment...you would have to grab one and do it...you'd be the 1st for the rear...the front has been done but requires a lot of modifications

to what?

THe old arm seems to be still on there tight, do I just apply some extra force to get it off? disregard, it needed some force

FWIW, I used a battery terminal puller to get mine off to replace the pivot/glass latch mechanism. Made it easy.

Stopped my the dealership today. Parts incoming tomorrow. Will post pics. Got everything minus the wiper blade for under $20 out the door.

I just used the nut from the original

 

[boobie33]

Good to know. I ordered it juat in case. If anything, ill have a spare nut. Btw looks great. Cant wait to swap mine out

 

[boobie33]

Just realized, from the looks of it, seems like i got a free cover!

 

[dbovine]

it also looks like you are missing the wiper blade.

I dont want an oem wiper blade. Ill be putting on a different one.

 

[Gruz7]

are the blades interchangeable from a 2nd gen to a 3rd gen?

I want to buy just the arm and cover and use the nut and blade I already have.

 

[GAINMOB]

u will use the same nut...I don't remember if the blades are or not...looking about $30 for arm and wiper

Yeah I just got the arm and wiper cover and the blade from fordparts.com through my dealer and I think I was $35 ish not too bad for getting rid of the ugly one lol

Does anybody find that if they installed the 3rd gen rear wiper onto the 2nd gen it has a bit more give than before? I just got mine on and the previous wiper would not budge but this new one has about 2-3 inches of wiggle room when move it around
