Wiper Transmission/Linkage

I just got a Dorman Wiper transmission/linkage for my right side. It does say that I need to replace the wiper arm. The old one won’t fit. The thing is, it does not give me a part number to try and purchase the new arm. Went to 3 auto stores and no one can figure out which one fits with our the new part number. Year and make does not matter since it’s a new part. Anyone run into this? Thnx. PS it’s a 2003.

Welcome to the forum

Whats the part number for the Dorman linkage?

That should tell you what year Rangers it was made for

Its odd that that info, i.e. "It does say that I need to replace the wiper arm. The old one won’t fit" was not told to you upfront, before getting this part
I would send it back and get correct 2003 linkage from wrecking yard

try car-part.com

It showed me(32773 zip code) Stanford auto wrecking has a 2001-2002 Ranger with wiper parts, also others in that area have 2003 Rangers
