This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things.

    are these for a 68-72 skylark/gs with hidden wipers? if so ground-up has brand new assy's. click the link and do a search for wiper in the chevelle section and youll find the arm assy's on the second page,second listing from the bottom.

    Try to find a parts book. The arms may be the same as A body but blades fifferent length. Not sure on this. Do a google search on "Trico" they were the original equipment supplier.

    for me it just comes with experience with working on buicks pretty much my whole life, and working on them all day. plus the arms are stamped trico. the wiper transmission assy's are the same for all body styles skylark or big car. the gm part numbers are left- 4918624 right- 4918758 68-72 all body styles with depressed park. so the ones from ground-up will work for you just fine. i dont have a listing for the wiper blade arms, all my gm parts book says on those is contact trico for part number so i cant say if the arms are the same between a body and big car. hope this helps
