I popped of the little black cap on the end, and removed the 13mm nut, but the arms aren't budging. Should they lift off the bolt at this point? Do I just need to use force? Or soak that bolt with some WD-40?

I tried a rubber mallet, battery terminal pullers and finally when those didn't do, a heavy duty version of the battery terminal puller.... all with no results. Final trick was to whack it good with a metal hammer to allow the rust(?) to break free.... and pulled them off with the terminal puller. If I told you it took several days of annoyance for me to get this done as I was impatient and trying to be gentle, I wouldn't be lying. Force is good! Just don't use too much!

I sprayed the bolts with WD-40, then tried moving the arms back and forth gently with increasing force until they seemed to be breaking free. "Success!" I thought as I lifted them off.

Than I noticed that the wiper arm posts have several small splines lining them that the arms match up to, and I seem to have stripped these off by moving it back and forth. Oh well, they are off now and when I go to put them back on I am just going to have to tighten those bolts extra tight!

Dangit. Thanks for the reply though.

I think.

spray it so it drips down the little teeth things that are around the bolt and let it seep down, then you will only need to pull them off with a little force. Takes 2 mins.
