56 Wiper blades
Ok- I'm sure this has been beat to death but I can't seem to find any threads that pertain. Time for wiper blades for the 56 F100. I go the the internet and I don't see anything like what I have. In fact, It looks like what I have is all one piece- the arm and blade all one piece. I went through this last time and the blades I got were different that what I had. This is getting old. Can you straighten me out for what I need?

The end is removeable from your arm. Look underneath, there is a leaf-spring like piece you have to release so it comes off. I think I see the end of it in your picture.
Are 56 wipers the same as 53-55? Check this thread: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...iper-arms.html

As far as I know the blades are the same but the left side of the 56 arm is different due to the location it mounts. The blades are removable like Ross says. I bought mine through Midfifty with an extra pair of blades..

Actually that is not a rivet. I know you have the problem solved but since I have the same setup and removed them today I thought I would tell you how. Hold the bracket on the top of the wiper in one hand. While pressing the arm down toward the rubber part of the blade (right where it enters the bracket you have in your other hand) pull the two pieces apart. Once you learn the trick it takes about 5 seconds.
