Common Problems It Can Help Solve

  • Poor blade retention at the hook connection

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front fitment before installation on 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee vehicles. Confirm the existing attachment style matches the spine / flange nut design and that the replacement arm aligns with the hook-type blade connection. Transfer the wiper blade to the new arm if needed, then check sweep position and windshield clearance after installation.
