Well if you have the gas engine this is a easy and cheap way.
I used a 1 1/2qt coolant bottle,drilled a hole for the washer pump,extended the wiring,and ditched the low washer sensor(no need for it).Cost a whole $6 to do.

Yeah, it's easier to see through dried-up crusty bugs than wet smeary bugs. |

Washer fluid is very useful in dusty areas. Truck I use to drive on a strip job would be completely covered in dust after following a rock truck on a hot dry day. 
only time I use it in my Jeep is in the rain to put rain-x on. |

I know, I know... Bringing back a very old post. But I finally had to relocate my washer bottle. My new 285/75-16 Buckshots rubbed the washer motor. So Once again, I built a little adapter (green thing in the pics) on the 3D printer to hold the washer motor. Used the rubber grommet out of the stock washer tank. Then I just used a $9 overflow tank from AutoZone as the reservoir. Worked out pretty good, I think.

Remember seeing something about you trading for a set of black moabs, any pics of the new tires mounted up? |

Holding out on pics until I install my Al's 4.5 Arms next weekend and bump up the lift a little more. I did trade wheels and tires with the guy though. Traded him my Silver Moabs with 70% tread 265/75-16 Cooper Discoverer ATR for his Black Powder Coated Moabs with 90% tread 285/75-16 Buckshot XMT Mudders. Really beefy now. |

Thats a nice size washer bottle for me to pee in lol I'm not real big on having to refill mine every 3 days or so in the winter, been trying to figure an option that would hold at least the stock volume of fluid, in upwards to a gallon or so suggestions? I'm still highly considering installing one in the rear cargo door |
