MG TD TF 1500 - wiper arms

Once again require assistance in determining what "T" these arms are suitable for. They are adjustable and will fit a 1/4" shaft. Thank-you John

Look like TD/TC to me John, but I'm puzzled by what appears to be two different arm lengths.

Hello La Verne , They are adjustable . one is fully extended and the other fully retracted . You will note that there is no hook up on the arms to connect the cross over linkage . John

Could these arms be for a T.F. seeing that there is no cross over linkage that is designed for the T.C. or T.D. . John

Could be I suppose John but the ones on my TF have the compression nut on the underside instead of the top of the arm. But I imagine these would work there as well...depending on how long they are.

I failed to notice the lack of the link attachment.

The compression nut is on the underside on my TF as well. Interestingly, the wipers on my uncles 1937 Chevy are identical to those on my TF.

These could be for a LandRover?
They had a motor on each blade. At least the one we had in the RAF did.

The wiper arms with the compression nut facing forward are generally the pre-war style. However, all MG wipers through the T series used a 3/16 inch shaft, not 1/4 inch.

Hello La Verne The cross over link I'm referring to is the link that attaches one wiper arm to the other . On the T.D. wiper arms ( top side ) there is a bracket or //// that allows you to connect the cross over linkage to both arms .These are needed to support the single wiper motor feature. John

Yes John, I just didn't notice they were absent in the pictures when I commented.
