    5" lift, 4.11 gears, tru-trac limited-slips, winch, bumbers... you know the rest.
    This seems like a dumb question but... has anyone ran 14” wiper blades on the TJ? I buy quality blades but it’s getting harder and harder to find 13” stock size blades. I can fine 14” blades all day in any quality I want so I’m just seeing if this has been done before I go waste my money to find they won’t work.

    A quick look at mine shows that an extra half inch on the wiper will come pretty close to the glass rubber. Buy one and find out for sure; try it on both sides.

    For my CJ, with a 14.5" tall windshield, I have to use A 12" wiper blade, which also is out of production. So I have to cut them down and I have to buy the ones that will allow me to do that. I have also had to just remove the rubber from a longer new one and insert it into an older frame.
