dealer wants 25 for two wiper replacements im not paying this price.
walmart doesnt have new book for the 2004.. what size do i need..
2004 1500 quad cab ram

 

24" on both sides.

 

thanks... what is the best brand.

 

I got Lexor at Walmart, they work well without excessive drag. The Anco's have a very good rating too, but they were out of the 24".
Dont get triple edge though, the three blades tend to drag alot and skip unless its really pouring out.
I also found the RainX brand ones to smear for a bit, not streaks but a fog type thing. Very distracting when driving in the rain.

Basically, go with Lexor or Anco.

 

I bought the Lexors from Walmart....supposed to have the 100,000 km warranty, I have had them less than 1 month, they chatter, streak etc. The ones that came with my truck worked well except for the chatter. Time to find a different brand.

 

I absolutely hate having to change wiper blades. It seems that nobody makes refills for the stock blade, and your almost left to buy a whole new blade. I relpaced the ones on my ram a month ago and ended up with the same BS chatter that you're having.

 

I get mine at the dealership for about 25. At one point I had those white double wiper blades but the clip broke of the one blade twice only on the passenger side and once they break off I couldn't fix it so I just went back to single. I really do miss the white ones.. they looked really cool. I know now that I take a 20 inche blade which is the max I can find anywhere around here.

I dont know where you guys buy your wiperblades, but go to Walmart and just get some Anco's or Lexors, they work great, and the Anco's are under $4 and Lexors are around $6. I've got Lexors and they dont chatter AT all.

 

What blades are best for Snowy and Icy conditions?

 

I guess the winter blade Anco's are supposed to be better, the frame of the blade has a rubber sheath so ice and snow cant get in it and freeze it up. However, I just use regular blades and a good Deicer washer fluid (I like Rain-x, $1.97/gal at wallies), and have never had a problem.
