Wiper arms....

Not knowing if this has been addressed or not but can Wrangler (87-94) wiper arms be swapped out for CJ arms? This would give better options for wiper blades when going for replacements.

- 1984 CJ-7 (just bought it, so I have to do some work and see what it has in it.. other than 4.2L Auto.. 4" lift, 33" tires... my '75 had a 304 2" Burbank supspension, warn winch, full cage, all the goodies, the '79 had a 401 turbo charged hi-po with t98 or 18, which ever one had the granny low first gear (never can remember which).. had all the items needed to 4wheel, none of the show and go poopie.. I don't believe "chrome will get you home"! I'm also not one to go out to see if I can tear up my jeep, I go where I must, usually with a group that I hung with.. Used to be part owner in Diablo Off Road Center in Concord California.. Jack Essex owned Diablo 4WD, George Clause was Mr. Base CAmp, and mine was "Sounds Etc" all under one big roof "the Diablo Off Road Center"..
main concern, just measure the length and figure the throw, on a CJ, there isn't a lot of room on either side for the wiper, and you don't want it going over and scratching window frames, or wiping out your wiper blade.. I keep thinking an extra inch would be nice.. but haven't tried it yet..

My concern in addition to that would be the splines on the arms themselves(diameter and spline count).

I think they are the same but I'm not 100% sure. If they aren't it would be the studs they mount to that is differant.

I have an extra set of CJ arms nd I'm going to see who in the area has a set of Wranglers in stock and do a comparo...It would be a lot easier for a pin type blae mount than the wavy blade that CJ's have.
