Frequently Asked Questions

What size wiper blades does a Jeep Cherokee take?

Wiper blade sizes for the Jeep Cherokee depend on the generation. The XJ (1997-2001) takes 18 inch (450mm) blades on both sides, the KJ (2001-2007) and KK (2008-2012) take 19 inch (475mm) blades on both sides, and the KL (2014-2022) takes a 26 inch (650mm) driver side blade with an 18 inch (450mm) passenger side blade. Owners should check the table above to find the correct size for their specific model year.

Does the Jeep Cherokee have a rear wiper?

Yes, every generation of the Jeep Cherokee is fitted with a rear wiper blade as standard. The XJ uses a 13 inch (325mm) rear blade, the KJ and KK use an 11 inch (275mm) rear blade, and the KL uses a 14 inch (350mm) rear blade. The rear blade is sold separately from the front pair and should be replaced at the same time for consistent visibility.

What wiper connector does the Jeep Cherokee use?

All four Jeep Cherokee generations covered here use a J-Hook front wiper connector. This consistency across the XJ, KJ, KK and KL generations makes fitment straightforward, though the blade lengths themselves change considerably between generations.

Why do Jeep Cherokee wiper sizes differ between generations?

Jeep redesigned the Cherokee several times over nearly three decades, altering the windscreen shape and wiper arm geometry with each new generation. The KL is a larger, more aerodynamic platform than the older XJ, KJ and KK models, which explains the jump to a 26 inch driver side blade on later cars compared to the 18 and 19 inch blades used previously.

How often should I replace Jeep Cherokee wiper blades?

Most manufacturers recommend replacing wiper blades every six to twelve months, though this can vary with climate and usage. Drivers should replace their Jeep Cherokee wiper blades sooner if they notice streaking, skipping or a worn, cracked rubber edge.
