Detailed Description

Dorman 42627 is engineered as a specific-fit windshield wiper arm for front applications on 1991-1994 Ford Explorer and 1991-1994 Ford Ranger, including 1991 Ford Ranger built from 12/90.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve

  • Loose or worn wiper arm connection at the pivot

  • Uneven or incomplete wipe pattern on the front glass
  • Corrosion or finish wear on the original wiper arm
  • Incorrect blade attachment caused by a damaged hook end

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year, make, model, and front position before installation. Confirm the existing attachment method and wiper blade connection match the listed spine / flange nut and hook configuration. Transfer the wiper blade to the new arm only if the blade condition is serviceable, and inspect the windshield pivot area for wear before final tightening.
