2016 Jeep Wrangler Wiper Blade Sizes

Quick Reference

Best Aftermarket Replacements

For the 2016 Jeep Wrangler, several excellent aftermarket wiper blades are available that meet or exceed OEM quality. Here are some of the most popular choices, ranging from premium to budget-friendly:

• Bosch ICON: A premium, beam-style blade known for its long life and all-weather performance. ($$$)
• Rain-X Latitude: A popular beam blade that applies a water-repellent coating to the windshield for enhanced visibility. ($$)
• Trico Force: A rugged, high-performance blade designed to withstand heavy wind and rain. ($$)
• Michelin Stealth: A hybrid blade that combines the aerodynamics of a beam blade with the focused pressure of a conventional one. ($$)
• PIAA Si-Tech: A silicone blade that offers superior durability and a streak-free wipe, often lasting longer than standard rubber blades. ($$$)

Attachment Style

The 2016 Jeep Wrangler uses a standard J-hook attachment for both the driver and passenger side front wipers. This is the most common type of wiper arm, making it easy to find a wide variety of replacement blades.

The rear wiper, however, uses a less common Roc Loc 2 style attachment. When purchasing a rear wiper replacement, ensure it is compatible with this specific connector.

How to Install

Front Wipers (J-hook):

1. Lift the Wiper Arm: Gently pull the wiper arm away from the windshield until it locks in the upright position.
2. Release the Old Blade: Locate the small tab on the underside of the J-hook connector where the blade attaches to the arm. Press this tab and push the old wiper blade down, away from the hook, to release it.
3. Attach the New Blade: Slide the new wiper blade's connector into the J-hook on the wiper arm until it clicks securely into place.
4. Lower the Arm: Carefully lower the wiper arm back onto the windshield.

Rear Wiper (Roc Loc 2):

Installation for the rear wiper is slightly different. You will typically need to rotate the blade 90 degrees and pull it straight off the pin on the wiper arm. The new blade will then snap directly onto the pin. Always refer to the specific instructions included with your replacement blade, as this attachment is less common.

When to Replace

Wiper blades are a critical safety component that should be replaced every 6 to 12 months. You should replace them sooner if you notice any of the following signs of wear:

• Streaking: The blade leaves streaks or bands of water on the windshield.
• Chattering: The blade skips or vibrates as it moves across the glass.
• Squeaking: The blade makes an audible noise with each wipe.
• Cracked Rubber: The rubber squeegee is visibly cracked, split, or weathered.
