Detailed Description

Dorman 42568 is a replacement windshield wiper arm engineered to match the original arm on specified vehicles.

What It Helps Address

  • Corrosion or fatigue in the original steel arm
  • Replacement needs after damage from age or impact

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, make, model, and front left position before installation. Confirm the attachment style matches the existing wiper linkage and blade connection. Transfer any vehicle-specific nozzle-in-arm configuration only where listed, such as the 1989 Chevrolet Caprice application. No instruction manual is included.
