Thanks for that Clay, however it is the arm length I am after, not the blade as shown. Have a great New Year! Cheers, Fraze

Hey Fraze

This what you are after? These are off the EK Ute Clay and I scrounged bits from. Top arm is 408mm and bottom 480mm (straight line), both measurements pin/pivot to pin. Hope this helps and Clay finds his arms to get that Ute painted!

Regards
Stephen

Thanks for all the tries guys. What I am after is the length of the arm that holds the blade. (The blade being the part in Clay's photo). This arm pushes onto the spindle which is just below the windscreen. My problem is that my car has two different length of arm and i am trying to establish which is the correct length. Thanks, Fraze

Exactly 11 inches from the end of the wiper arm to the centre of the hinge pin at the spindle end
When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.
