24" wiper blades

Over in the superduty area, guys were talking about using 24" blades. I decided to pick up a set today. Very happy with increased viewable windsheild space in the rain. No overhang or interferences. Next time you need blades, get a set of 24's.

Been using 24" wipers for 2+ years... huge difference over the stock size (20" IIRC). They clear the whole windshield.

Now how is this related to the 7.3L PSD...?

This is a Checkers coupon from the local Phoenix newspaper. Save some $$$$$ on Bosch Icon wipers and Silverstar Ultra head lamp bulbs. Check your local paper.

Does the acceleration from the 7.3 help the 24" wiper blades do a better job of staying on the windshield at higher speeds????????????????

How's that.

last time I checked, all 7.3 had windshield wipers. Just trying to help out others who do not visit other sub sections, like myself months ago. Thanks for asking though.

I bought Michelin brand wiper blades and they are AWESOME!!! Get them all Wally's for about $8 each. I put them on all my vehicles now.

Matt, thanks for the post. I guess I wouldn't have thought to try anything but what came on the truck. Definitely will now. Thanks for posting here 'cause I don't read the SD forum much. Trying to "limit my time" on theses sites before I get addicted. Oops, too late!
