order yourself one of these. direct bolt on replacement but can take any normal blade. yup. one of the best changes i made to the rover. They sell a "full kit" that includes wipers. DONT get that, it comes with LR genuine wipers and quite frankly they stink. I've found a good (and cheap) "conventional style" wiper is the Bosch Micro Edge . I use them on my company car and they're awesome, and i think cost me like 10 bucks each. | |

Can I use one from a junk D1 cause there is one at a local junk yard that I got my CDL out of yeah of course. that's what i have. the front's are a different story the spring gets weaker with age.. but the backs who cares as long as it still wipes. you just have to run the washer hose up the D1 arm. the D1's don't have a nozzle on the arm. i just zip tied mine to the arm and it works great. | |

| You can also just buy wiper blade inserts, and reuse the old frame, costs about $3. Same for the Front. | |

| Been a while since I posted some actual work.. SO here ya go! X -Ball joint for a arm screw on top to tighten it when it gets loose (dont mind the pit bull I'm too lazy to crop) Getting the old one out too a shit ton of heat and an air chisel. Be casreful the ball might explode out like a cannon and kill you.. Here's a genius idea that will save you time and effort.. also the crown nut is a 30 MM and I was lucky enough to be able to get the socket on their enough to break it loose with breaker bar Got a pair of flanges from rovers north with my gift certificate that are identical to Terrafirmas. I should be getting socket and new bearings so these should go in tomorrow night. A long with my new QT diff guard.. | |

Lol NOW I tell you right? I couldn't get it on with the black piece installed. I had to take it apart, bolt the black piece to the top diff bolts then put the actual diff guard on. It was a pain but its on. I had 6 people in the truck after and on a dip in the road I think it tapped the gas tank. Need a lift lol or just keep people out of my trunk | |
