Re: wiper arms
According to the MasterParts catalogue, FB is different to EK. They are both different to FE/FC, and again different to FX/FJ. Not too sure what the differences are though... I've definitely used EK on my FB before.

Re: wiper arms
Rare spares have reproduction FJ ext wiper arms $135 for the pair... ready to install new, you don't need to butcher up FB or EK wipers or spend hours trying to piece it all back together.gazza wrote:Hi all are the wiper arms on fb ek the same as the ones on fe fc (the arms on the out side)if they are i am after a pair if some one can help.They will be modified to suit my fj holden.I have asked the guys on the fe fc forum but nothing as yet.cheers Gazza.

All wiper arms and blades from FX to HZ are being sourced but it takes time especially finding the correct samples to copy.artyfartymarty wrote:Rare spares have reproduction FJ ext wiper arms $135 for the pair... ready to install new, you don't need to butcher up FB or EK wipers or spend hours trying to piece it all back together.gazza wrote:Hi all are the wiper arms on fb ek the same as the ones on fe fc (the arms on the out side)if they are i am after a pair if some one can help.They will be modified to suit my fj holden.I have asked the guys on the fe fc forum but nothing as yet.cheers Gazza.

Re: wiper arms
Getting back to differences between the wiper arms, the EK arms seem to be a little bit longer than the FB arms. The cast spline section are the same side by side, but the length from the two rivets to the wiper blade are longer.
