My 94' runner rear wiper never "hops" back up on the seat all the way like it's suppose to. It gets pulled away from the rear gate glass just enough to let the glass go up and down, but if I help it it snaps up all the way on the seat. Furthermore it seems to me that i may be missing a tapered plastic guide or something on the wiper arm that helps get the wiper up and out of the way.
Does anyone have a picture of one thats correct I can see?
Thanks.

Ok thanks guys, it appears I am missing that little bullet piece that hooks up to the wiper arm itself. I can only imagine someone changed the wiper arm before i bought this truck and tossed the other one. I can't see in the pics...does that thing screw to the arm, clamp, or snap to it?

2 small screws where the blade connects to the arm.

Ok Thanks everyone! Now I have to get one.

These might be a little late but just in case here they are. In case it helps the wiper blade style is called a Saddle Mount and I heard there is a conversion available so you can install standard refill blades into it. Ditto on just the two screws holding it on.

Wow! Great pics. Now I know exactly what I'm after.

Yeah, my 85 has pretty much the exact same wiper design. It also has some issues getting back on top of the bumpstop thingy. (I do still have the little tab on there though) My guess is that it's just because of the old motor, can't push as much anymore. My cheap fix was to take just a tiny dab of wheel greese, spooge it on the slider, and it slips right up there every time now. I'm sure I'll have to re-apply it once it wears off from the rain or whatnot, but it works
