Wipers over extend

Thanks for responding. I do have the correct length blade replacements. I did not explain that the movement was erratic. And after looking at a few U-tube sessions, I suspect that the linkage bushings are worn out. It is about $75 for parts on line. That should solve it.

I the exact same issue. I swapped out the wiper transmission with one from a salvage yard. Around here, you can get a used wiper transmission for $10-15, more if it has the wiper motor ($15-25). First time, I got just the transmission. That solved the sloppy slapping problem, but it was nearly impossible to get the stroke exactly correct. I have since replaced it with another used transmission, but this one I left the wiper motor in place and now the stroke is just like it should be.

These are very easy to remove at a yard...do that if you can. You could also buy one off fleabay (that is where I got my first one) for about $30 (free shipping)
