Comparing DormanProducts Models
With 11 options tailored to popular trucks and cars, selecting the right one is straightforward. For Ford owners, the 42647 (driver-side) pairs seamlessly with the 42648 (passenger-side), offering symmetrical wiping on models like F-150s. Chevy/GMC fans might prefer the 42852 front arm or the 42668/42667 duo for Silverado and Sierra trucks, providing robust coverage.
Dodge drivers can rely on the 42884 driver-side arm, while Saturn models benefit from 42461 (passenger) and 42806 (driver). If your vehicle needs both sides, Dorman's paired designs minimize vibration and maximize contact. Compared to generics, Dorman's OE-style articulation prevents skipping, especially at highway speeds.

How to Choose the Right DormanProducts Wiper Arm
Start by identifying your vehicle's make, model, year, and side. Use our filters or product descriptions—e.g., 42884 fits select Dodge Rams for heavy-duty use. Consider climate: longer arms like those for trucks handle larger windshields better. Installation tips include cleaning the pivot area and testing in various positions.
Part of our extensive Windshield Wipers & Parts selection, these arms integrate with refills and motors for complete upgrades. If towing or off-roading, prioritize models with reinforced bases like the 42694 for GM trucks.
