Wiper blades for "Shepards Crook" style arms
My '85 XJS (US model) has "shephard's crook" style wiper arms, instead of the pin type. The end of the arm looks like a "J". From what I can tell, the pin type superseded to the shephards crook style somewhere along the way, and my cars arms were changed out. I can't find blades that fit properly. The cradle that the crook fits into is too wide, and the wiper blades are sloppy on the arms, so they don't clean well.
Anyone else run into this problem? Anyone found blades that fit properly? Several years ago, shephards crook style blades came with two different sizes of cradles, but the new ones don't appear to.
