71911, How do I remove the wiper arms to Paint em??

I only see one bolt at the bottom of it, Ive taken that out before and it wouldn't budge. Is there more to it or a technique I am not using :shrug

Thats the only bolt there is. You just have to work with it, wiggle it around and shit. It has to come straight off though, no angles and shit. I have had mine off twice and they still can be a bitch.

just wiggle it a bit....pull the arm up so it locks in place (off of ur windshield) and wiggle the thing. It' got thread like ur steering wheel. Must pull of strait

I would think about powder coating them they last alot longer no chipping and look really good, that's what i did and the only problem i had was the you need to grind a little of where the arm connects to the wiper that's it. It's last a long time much better than paint.
