Recommended Posts

Good luck! My blades are streaking badly already,and I had a hard time finding even OEM blades.I finally ordered a set from autopartsgiant.com.They had the best price after much searching!

I just bought a pair of Trico 16-2213 blades today. They did well with the snow and freezing rain today. I wanted the Bosch blades but Advanced didn't have the code for my truck. Either way it was money well spent.

 

BTW, I was told that there was a special connector that was new on these trucks and not a whole lot of companies sell compatible blades yet. Whwther or not its true I don't know as I had the salesman install them.

They changed the blade size from the OBS trucks? That's retarded...

They went with the new-style constant pressure blades with a special style connector. Read about a lot of problems on Tahoe & Suburbans last winter with the blades breaking in heavy snow. Was almost impossible to find replacements, especially when you need them the most (middle of the night, in a snow storm, etc...basically you're screwed if you break one). The recommendation last winter was to buy spares (if you can find them) and keep them in the truck. I really hope things are better this year.
