Title: Wiper Blade Confusion...
Post by: Numbers on October 08, 2017, 01:09:12 pm
1998 U-320 M11 Celect Plus

Does anybody know what size and model wiper blade is a replacement for the OEM factory blade.

I've searched the forum and have come up with different answers: 24", 25", 26" blades.

I tried new inserts into the metal frames on our coach, but the rubber insures were too narrow and both slide down, and pull out from the metal teeth on the frame.

Thank you,
Chris

I searched forums, and beamalarm, with no success.
What about a '93 225?

Just guessing here... 

Our 1993 U280 does not show up on the Beamalarm chart, but it takes the same Trico 67-241 blade assembly used by the 1994 U280.

I would think the U225 and the U240 probably have the same size windshield and the same type wiper setup.  The Beamalarm page linked above shows the '94 model U240 takes a Trico 64-201 blade assembly.  I would also guess that the '93 and the '94 U225 windshield wiper setups are identical.  So if it was me, I'd try getting the Trico 64-201 (black, 20" blade) from Amazon Prime.  If they don't fit, send them back for a full refund.

98 takes the 26" dico heavy duty commercial wiper arm and trico blades.

Vertical blades and fresh arm springs hold the blade firmly against the glass in heavy rain and wind and higher speeds
