How to remove wiper arms?

Hey everyone, I need to get the wiper arms off of my car. I've tried and tried, but I can't get it to budge. How in the heck do you get these boogers off?

they are some lil tab just pull on them and the arm just come right off.

yeah the tab on the base of the arm that connects to the wiper gear. just pull it out and lift arm off.

i'm not sure if you need to bend the arm up, to take pressure off the tab or not, that is the way mine are.

I did the lower thing to mine. It I could do it, it's a breeze for you guys! Just pull that tab out, & they slide right off. You have to then lift the wipers up, kinda.

Ok, I'll try again later. lol I knew it couldn't be that hard.

Once the tab is moved, they almost fall off!

 

[eliyarbrough]

Yeah, once that's pulled out your home free! You lift it away from windshield. Up towards the sky, kind of.

see if they need to be painted while you got em off. I painted mine. as small as the wipers are , it made the car pop a bit more.

Every one I've ever owned to, I'm glad someone else is with me, I saw all these "they fall right off" comments and wondered.

Mine were easy as pie too.

Must suck for you guys.

You need an engine hoist and two German football players.... perhaps a qt. of Vasoline....

Sounds about right.

If that doesn't work get a plasma cutter
