FJ60 - Relocating A New Windshield Washer Reservoir (1 Viewer)

[Godwin]

I'm tempted to go this route for my headlight washer. I have the valence/nozzles/hose/etc. on my '86 FJ60 project vehicle, but it's getting a 3FE transplant so the silencer takes up part of the space where the headlight washer bottle goes.

Silencer doesn't really seem to do anything. Pitch to free up space for something useful.

I might look into that.

I second the above comment. I removed my silencer and it made no difference in noise.

Good to know, thanks. I'm pretty sure I'll be parting out my '84 FJ60, so will probably keep the good reservoir for my '86 FJ60.

What is the part number for the new plug connection?

I'd like to know that too but I assume he's talking about just any 2-wire waterproof connector pair

I'd like to know that too ...

Any two conductor plug could be used. I used a two conductor moisture proof WeatherPak plug. There are WeatherPak crimpers that make perfect crimps on the terminals, or vise grips could probably work ok or maybe normal wire crimpers. I used the designated crimpers since I was using these plugs for other stuff too.

The moisture proof bushings are available in different sizes to fit different wires. Get the right size. The link below is for 12AWG which is too big.
