I'm not sure how common it is, but I've read of many doing so. There are several reasons to make the switch:

1) Cost of wiper blades
2) Reduce likelihood of blades hitting each other
3) Reduce overall friction to improve wiper motor performance
4) Others?

Appreciate the help.

We’ll see how it goes.

I switched from the 36” to 32” a couple of years ago. Really can’t tell the difference in coverage. While you’re at it, check the mounting nuts for tightness. They tend to loosen up over time. I believe they should be @ about 65’lbs.

Check with Newmar for the torque for your vehicle. While many of the higher end coaches do have a torque of 65 foot pounds, the Ventana may be different.
