Trying to locate a replacement wiper blade for a Sims Cab on a B7100D. Does anyone have any info or part numbers on tracking down a new blade?

The cab style has a solid, flat, windshield and soft sides and rear panels. The blade is 14" and is straight - no curve or arc to it.

Thanks, Dan

I've taken oddball wipers to NAPA & they've matched them up.

Does the arm have down force to the windshield, spring loaded like a car?
If it does you can get away with an arched blade it should sit flat on the glass, your old one might have started out that way and over time just gotten smashed. ;)

Wolfman, I found a photo (attached below) of the wiper blade I need. It is on a tractor for sale on Ebay. I hope there is enough detail to view the blade.

It is a solid, straight piece of metal that holds and support the blade. There is some very light down pressure but no where enough to flatten an arched blade.

your from MA, go to a marine store. Boats use the same motors,arms and blades as your tractor.

Have you tried NAPA auto parts. Lots of older vehicles had flat windshields with that type of wiper blade. If they don't have one in stock I bet they could order one.

Thanks kubotasam. Great idea. I will check them out tomorrow. Want to bring my blade with me. If no luck, I'm off the the nearest boat shop in the area.
