if your old nasty leaking or even missing jug needs replaced. but you cant find a 73-91 style dont look at it as a problem. the options are there for little bigger capacity and almost bolt in.

i needed a jug as i didnt put one back in the plow truck few years ago when i swaped the body on to the 1ton frame. figured why need it if wipers never worked. ( got to love rain-x ) :D

well now i finaly got a good wiper motor from member here and swaped it in today and i got wipers now :waytogo: but still needed washer fluid jug.

so i dug threw my stuff and found a 88-95 style jug with little more capacity over stock but not a whole lot. also has the pump in tank style . and fyi diffrent plug for electric but the 80's style pump fits as i just grabed a new pump for stock style tank and fit in newer jug perfectly.

then since i have a diffrent set of mounting brackets for my plow control valve unit on the fender i couldnt use the stock jug anyways . so the 88-95 style fit super close and i reused 1 stock washer fluid jug hole and took dremal tool and made the hool and used a clip nut to drop in place and hold nut so no major fancy tools to hold from backside.

well here it is and hooked up and filled with rain-x orange fluid .

so if you need a jug and had one on hand or cant find stock this will work good with min mods.
