Quick Reference: 2019 Ram 1500 Wiper Blade Specs

Note: The 2019 Ram 1500 was not equipped with a rear wiper from the factory.

Best Aftermarket Replacements

Choosing the right wiper blade often comes down to budget and desired performance. Premium beam-style blades offer the best all-weather performance and longevity, while conventional blades are a budget-friendly choice for moderate climates.

• Premium Tier ($$$): Bosch ICON and Rain-X Latitude Water Repellency. These blades are industry leaders, known for their durability and exceptional, all-season performance. The Rain-X blades also apply a water-repellent coating to the windshield as they wipe.
• Mid-Tier ($$): Trico Force and Michelin Stealth Ultra Hybrid. These offer a great blend of performance and value. Hybrid blades like the Michelin Stealth combine the aerodynamic features of a beam blade with the focused pressure points of a conventional one.
• Standard Tier ($): PIAA Si-Tech. A solid choice that provides good performance and often features silicone blades, which can last longer than traditional rubber.

Attachment Style

The 2019 Ram 1500 uses a J-Hook attachment for both the driver and passenger side wipers. This is the most common type of wiper arm, making it easy to find a wide variety of replacement blades that come with the correct pre-installed adapter.

How to Install New Wiper Blades

Changing wiper blades on a 2019 Ram 1500 is a straightforward task that requires no tools.

1. Lift the Wiper Arm: Gently pull the wiper arm away from the windshield until it locks in the upright service position.
2. Protect Your Windshield: Place a folded towel or a piece of cardboard on the glass under the wiper arm. This will prevent the metal arm from accidentally snapping back and cracking the windshield.
3. Remove the Old Blade: Locate the small tab on the underside of the J-hook connector where it meets the blade. Press this tab and push the old wiper blade down along the arm to release it from the hook.
4. Install the New Blade: Ensure the new blade's adapter is oriented correctly. Slide the J-hook of the wiper arm into the adapter until you hear a distinct "click." Give the blade a gentle tug to confirm it is securely locked in place.
5. Lower the Arm: Carefully lower the wiper arm back onto the windshield. Repeat the process for the other side.

When to Replace Wiper Blades

Wiper blades are a critical safety component. For optimal visibility and safety, you should replace your wipers every 6 to 12 months. However, you should inspect them sooner if you notice any of these signs of wear:

• Streaking: The blade leaves streaks or bands of water behind.
• Chattering: The blade skips or vibrates across the windshield instead of wiping smoothly.
• Splitting: The rubber squeegee is cracked, split, or has torn away from the frame.
• Squeaking: The blades make an audible squeaking noise as they pass over the glass.

Living in a harsh climate with extreme sun, ice, or snow will degrade the rubber more quickly, necessitating more frequent changes.
