Land Rover Wipers

Post by RogerRust »

Does any one know is LR 90 Defender wiper arms have the same spline as a MGB (which I think is the same as a Minor)

I want to fit modern Aero wiper blades to my B, but they need arms with a hook on the end not a blade like the Minor/MGB fitting.

Fortunately the LR one is about the same size as the MGB but with a hook. I just need to know if the splined end is the same.

thanks in advance.

Sorted I took a tape measure with me to yesterdays classic car show.
The landrover wipers are the same size and fitting but the other hand so wont do. I guess I need a LHD pair of LR arms!

I remember on my '63 van with clap hand wipers I fitted longer blades and adjustable arms so the blades almost touched the top of the screen and were staggered so that they overlapped in the middle and greatly reduced the unwiped triangle
