how to remove wiper blade?

Got a 96 bronco and going to replace blades but the arms dont pull all the way back from the windshield. Any advice appreciated on how to remove them.

You can either remove the arms completely from the studs or you can flip the blade assembly over an work with the blade facing up. The OEM blade assemblies are kind of a PITA. I don't recall the process for getting the blade assembly off the arm. I'll look into it but someone will most likely remember.

Unless the design changed.. and I don't know that it did, you'll find a little lever at the base of the arm that locks it off the windshield, the whole thing just lifts off the spline after that.
