bushwhacker Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Hi As long as the diameter on the moving stem with splins is the same as the new wiper arm end bit. It does say its for a Series. "It said Typhoo tea" on the side of a bus I seen, but it sure was on tea bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Those are the correct arms, but there is also a splined boss which goes onto the spindle first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landy-Novice Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 finally arrived and it doesn't fit, the adaptor is completly wrong for mine as my spindle is just rould with no notches or splines? so what do i need again? or could i drill out the adaptor and use that as it has a grub screw?

Yeah i'm sure that'll be fine. The spindle coming out of mine is alot thinner though. Wonder if you have later wiper box thingy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just ground a flat profile on the spindles. Had this issue on my 88", I think the splined adaptors sold nowadays are for Defenders - which have spindles with a flat on them.
