where is the friction retaining clip at, I do not want to break it?
With the use of a small flat screwdriver or a bent nylon tool made for arm removal, gently pry the friction retaining clip that's under the arm at the spindle side. Once the clip is moved forward, the arm will slide right off. You can buy the windshield wiper removal tool for around $4.50 at www.toolsource.com
The wiper blades and wiper attachment are very specialized on the 1985 Jeep CJ7. Very few wiper blades will fit. See sources and related links below for one of the few options. Assuming that you mean "wiper blade" (blade and frame) which are replaced often rather than "wiper arm" (piece from the spindle at the hood to the wiper blade) which are rarely ever replaced, the 1985 Jeep CJ7 takes 11" wiper blades on both sides front. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only - be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.
