I got a replacement at either West or Boater's World (when they were still open). Its not a special "Grady" part.

They are often ANCO truck blades. Hard to find in auto parts store. A truck parts store should have it.

My SS wiper arm had Anco stamped on it. Went to NAPA Walker and they had a truck blade but it did not quite lock in the tab. Went to Car Quest and they ordered part number 752-200. It was the same blade as NAPA so I decided to cut the tab on my wiper arm to fit the blade. Came out perfect and locks very good.

Now I know the part number I can order and they are available.

Mine were SS arms, but I swapped them out for a set of 18" arms and blades at Costco. Work just fine and bend well to the contours of the window.

Salt water or fresh?

Call Diesel Equipment Inc, they are the OEM, just recently bought a new wiper motor, blade and washer thru deck fitting from them, call Sean or Neenie at 336-273-4531.

Bought an exact replacement for mine for $12.50, alittle price, but fits right up to the mount.
