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.
Cheers,

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.
Wish they had repro FB wipers.

All wiper arms and blades from FX to HZ are being sourced but it takes time especially finding the correct samples to copy.

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.
cheers
