Noob in TX
« on: October 05, 2009, 09:27:55 am »
Hello all, I just bought an '87 Silverado SWB 350.  I'm new to the board, but not new to the trucks as I used to have an '86 SWB 305.

Also, I've got a quick question.  I'm trying to replace the wiper blade, but they apparently don't sell the replacement blades at the local auto parts store.  Do I have to buy a whole new wiper assembly?  Thanks.

Welcome from West Texas.  You might try Wal-Mart for the wiper blades.  Not positive they will have them, but they have a large selection and they had some for our 51 chevy.

Another welcome from West Texas.
 Where are you located? I have never had a problem finding wiper blades for mine. I buy about 3 sets minumum per year thanks to the West Texas weather.
