I've noticed that the part numbers for the pieces are no longer on the main page. I'll post them tonight when I get around to doing mine later tonight.

EDIT - The part numbers needed are 9L1Z-17526-A and 9L1Z-17528-B.

I just did mine for just over $30. The only thing I didn't like is the new piece that fits over the stud and gets the nut tightened over it is PLASTIC with no teeth. It's smooth on the inside and I hammered it on and tightened down as much as I could without breaking it.

The old arm I removed was metal with teeth to fit perfectly over the toothed stud.

New one worked fine when I tested it, just wonder if it's gonna eventually wear down plastic and require a rework.

Is there a benefit other than look?

None...just a sleeker look

Could you re-post?

I have a june 09 build 2009 expy eddie bauer. It looks as if I already have this wiper? Either previous owner did this mod or could it possibly have been a job 2 change over in late 2009?

Don't need the thing anyway. Best mod is to remove it and cover the stud with a decorative cap. Way more attractive. I have done that on my past (2) Expeditions.

Was anyone able to find the little rubber gasket that goes over the 22mm nut?

 

[GAINMOB]

Mine didn't have that

My 2009 rear wiper looks different (newer), but had the same issue. I shopped wiper blade assemblies and wiper blades and it was closer to $30. I opted for $12 cap solution and it went on in 5 seconds and looks good as new. The 2007 does look better with the newer arm.

I took the pretty one off our 2010 and put the ugly 2007 one on. Now I can buy a regular blade from Walmart for a couple of bucks instead of the Ford one for way more and that no place seems to carry.

My 2009 came with the new style wiper. Must have changed in 2009.
