I'd concur with talking with the engineer on number of wipers.

I thought I'd heard just after I got mine through engineering with three wipers that the requirement had been repealed and that you could build with two wipers again. Worth checking just to make the job easier at least.

I sourced a new lucas motor here in Melbourne, still not sure if it a direct copy or from the revamped Lucas company. Anyway thinking about the load a three wiper system would have on a motor designed for two I though it worth the expenditure.

Also bought new wheel boxes and sourced a longer jag drive coil to enable me to link all the three boxes properly.

Didn't know about the rover pin option and manually repositioned the drive pin to suit the sweep needed. My three blades get progressively shorter accross the screen but they don't look too silly and the system works.

Cheers
