windshield wiper arm making alot of noise

Hi, my 92 maxima windshield wiper arms are making so noise especially the passenger side and it's driving me nuts. It looks as if it's bend.

I am looking for a new pair and anyone knows which ones I should get?

Thank you.

the arms are making noise?
maybe the blades are, but I've never seen the arms make noise.
Linkage can make noise too, but not the arms.

When the shafts in the pivots wear off the plastic, they start making noise too, because the angle of the shafts changes and arms start rubbing on the hood. But this is a really extreme case.

i know this probably won't help, but I had the same problem and after doing everything I could (icluding changing the blades several times), in desperation one day, I juust sprayed some wd40 down there and it's been all good since

I had the same problem too. You should check the springs that keeps the blade to the windshiled. Over time those springs are pulled out and it scratches your windshield making annoying sounds. and then replace you blades too
