Parts for your 1986 Mitsubishi Pajero-Wiper blades

1986 Mitsubishi Pajero — Wiper Blades

Wiper blades are absolutely relevant to the 1986 Mitsubishi Pajero. Technical references such as the Mitsubishi factory service manual for the first‑generation Pajero (L040 series), the 1986 Owner’s Handbook, and the Mitsubishi ASA electronic parts catalogue all specify a front windscreen wiper system, with a rear wiper fitted on many wagon/hard‑top models. So if it’s a 1986 Pajero, it uses wiper blades.

On this classic 4x4, the wiper blades do the heavy lifting in Aussie and Kiwi conditions—clearing rain, red dust, mud, and coastal salt spray from the windscreen so visibility stays sharp. Good blades reduce glare at night, sweep away fine grit without smearing, and help keep the glass from micro-scratching. For touring, beach runs, or a wet city commute, fresh blades make the Pajero feel safer and less tiring to drive.

As part of routine servicing, it’s smart to check and replace wiper blades regularly. UV, heat, frost, and salt air in Australia and New Zealand are rough on rubber, so a 6–12 month replacement cycle is a fair rule of thumb. Look for tell-tales like streaking, squeaks, judder, missed patches, frayed edges, or a split wiping lip. Also check the arm’s spring tension and that the washer jets hit the glass cleanly.

• Clean the blade rubber and windscreen with mild detergent—avoid silicone dressings.
• Replace blades in pairs for even sweep
