Have you got right size wiper blade on it?

Just a thought.

Yes have 13” fitted. It’s the stroke of wipe seems to over shoot one way. If you adjust it it over shoots the other way.ie the blade park position
Am thinking it should be a smaller blade on the driver side

Can’t recall what ones I had but sure one was smaller?

There is no ‘96 on the charts?!?

Only ‘95 or ‘97.

All fronts are 11”’ apparently for those years

Unit you fitted dodgy perhaps or out of alignment slightly?

To me. It would make sense as to the position on the wheelboxes. To have one shorter . As I say all has been replaced with new. Motor gearboxes and wipers

Mine is a N reg defender 90. And 11” would make sense to fit. Will look at getting hold off 11” . Cheers for the info

Welcome to the forum

Try one 13” and the one you think smaller 11”.
I am damn sure my ‘98 Vreg had a smaller one

Had quite few ‘custom’ jobs (duct tape)
