Detailed Description

This Dorman wiper arm, part number 42644, is engineered as a direct replacement for the original front wiper arm on select Ford trucks and SUVs. It measures 24.5 inches and uses a hook-style wiper end with a spine / flange nut attachment method, helping restore proper windshield sweep and secure blade engagement. Compatible With 2001 Ford Explorer Sport, front left; 2002 Ford Explorer Sport, front left, to 4/18/02; and 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac, front, to 4/18/02. This part cross-references OE number 1L2Z17526DA for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

  • Wiper arm that no longer holds the blade securely
  • Uneven or incomplete windshield wipe pattern
  • Reduced contact between the blade and windshield
  • Corrosion or wear on the original steel arm
  • Loss of proper front wiper operation on the listed Ford models

This part is listed for front left use on the 2001 Ford Explorer Sport and 2002 Ford Explorer Sport, and for front use on the 2002 Ford Explorer Sport Trac through 4/18/02. Confirm the hook-style blade connection and spine / flange nut mounting point match the original setup before installation. No instruction manual is included.
