Re: Jeep Trailblazer SS

The dashboard on the trailblazer was 16 inches deep. The jeep dashboard was 6 inches deep. The wipers would have to extend another 10 inches just to reach the bottom of the windshield. Not to mention the geometry of their sweep would be crazy with 10 inch longer arms.

If i flip the wiper motor and mount it above the roof, the arms will park at the top of the windshield and sweep down. I just have to figure out mount angles, wiper blade length, and how to extend the existing roof rack or make a new one. I've got 2 roof racks, but they're both different styles. I was hoping to cut and extend the rack using the spare for parts. I'll post pics with a write up when i make it that far along.
