Default Gen 2 wiper arm

I'm replacing my rear wiper arm with a gen 2 wiper arm this weekend. Has anyone tried replacing the front windshield wipers to gen 2? Figured it would look sweet if they matched

no they won't work, they're different lengths. they don't look nice like the back ones do anyway.

the Gen2s are taller than ours (so is the windshield) and i think a bit wider, so the wiper arms are longer and wont work

that's what I did to mine not too long ago since mine were pretty bad. Here's a post where I put the pictures of it if you wanted to look. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...some-pics.html

The Gen 2 rear wiper arm is about the only part from the 2nd gens that are worth anything... IMO of course... Oh, and the Hemi.... That's it though.

Painted all three of mine recently and ive seen a durango with the 2nd gen rear wiper arm and it is a pretty nice improvement. I like it!
