Are you talking about the whole arm or just the blade? The arm I think has to be unscrewed and the blade just slides off. Pick up the wipers, flip them up side down and slide them down the arm off that little hook section. You get what I am saying?

At the end of the arm is a plastic cover piece that comes up and there is a bolt to take off the arm. The bolt is hidden under the plastic cover which looks like part of the arm.

There is a special part called a "wiper arm puller" that was specifically designed to pull off the wiper arms on the fbody. Chevy dealers are supposed to have this part and most of them don't. I had Bast Chevrolet on Long Island order one- took about 3 months to get. A regular battery terminal puller would work fine, but the hood sticks out too far over the wipers. This special part fits perfectly in there.
