On my 84 my drivers side wiper arm took a dump and fell apart, what year can I get the arms with hooks (I read ford's have a tear I can use) VS the flat part on factory arms?

Wiper Arm Replacement

I thought 73-84 were the flat arm style and 85-91 have the round stub sticking out perpendicular to the arm.
this style?
When I hear hook I think of this style:
Not sure why I have no option to insert that so it shows as a picture.
I don't disagree. If there was an easier design to remove the wiper blade than the pin style that'd fit, I'd be interested. The driver's side is a real pain.

I want the hook style, the nubs are annoying also lol
Thats what I'm looking for, @kennyw says he has a set and will be shipping me a pair.
Later OBS ford trucks used the j hook wiper arms and they fit our splined stubs. What they don’t have is spray nozzles. The arms are 3/8 instead of 1/4 so you’ll need to file down a notch for the nozzle to clip on to. You can’t use the ford oem arms because they don’t have enough pressure on them but the dorman aftermarket replacement does have the same spring that the gm arms do. They appear identical for the spring at least.
My truck just has nozzels in the cowl they don't go up the wiper arm
Exact year/model from dorman would be good to know. Whenever you get around to getting some that is.
Dorman 42631
95 f150
95 f150
You are right. I have posted a picture of those to show the difference.
We also sell the parts for both of these models. I will include the links below.
