Get the right wiper sizes
The 1998 Dodge RAM Van wiper blade sizes are: the correct sizes. Purchase blades matching these exact sizes.
Lift the wiper arm
Pull the wiper arm away from the windshield until it stays in the upright position. Be careful — if the arm snaps back, it can crack the windshield.
Remove the old blade
Press the release tab where the blade meets the arm, then slide the old blade off the hook. Some vehicles use a pin-type or bayonet-type mount — check the attachment before forcing it.
Attach the new blade
Slide the new blade onto the wiper arm hook until it clicks into place. Gently lower the arm back to the windshield.
Repeat for other blades
Replace the passenger-side blade the same way. If your 1998 Dodge RAM Van has a rear wiper, replace that too.
Test the wipers
Spray washer fluid and run the wipers through a few cycles. Check for streaking, chattering, or missed areas. New blades should wipe cleanly.

Wiper blades should be replaced every 6-12 months, or whenever you notice streaking, chattering, or reduced visibility. Worn blades are a safety hazard in rain and snow.
Choosing Replacement Blades
- Beam blades (frameless) provide better contact and handle ice/snow well — recommended for most drivers.
- Conventional blades (with a frame) are cheaper and work fine in mild climates.
- Hybrid blades combine beam design with a protective shell — good all-around choice.
All major brands (Bosch, Rain-X, PIAA, Michelin) make blades that fit the Dodge RAM Van. Match the size exactly when ordering.
