well I feel silly cause it looks simple, remove nut and slide shaft out to replace wiper blade on a 07 Monaco Camelot. The only problem is that the "bolt" or shaft will not come free from the blade. Is there a trick that someone has learned? This seems like is should be so simple. Thanks in advance if you can help.

I just change my 08 Camelots. Removed nut and noticed some rust around things.
Try a little more pressure or liquid wrench first.
I bought 28" blades and walmart, drilled the center hole out to accomidate the pin your trying to remove and installed the new blades. About $9.00 each.

Thanks for your advice, I checked with my rv dealer and they explained that there was a spacer that the bolt went thru. As you mentioned it is rusted. So they suggested a hack saw to remove the bolt head and then replace the bolt and spacer with whatever comes with the new blade. or make my own spacer set up. Thanks again.
