wiper washer nozzle

I have those fancy two arm wipers that keep the blade staright up and down.
The bolt that attaches the blades to the arm also attaches a little nozzle that sprays water up and down the blade. Where can I get new nozzles?

Is your broke or just clogged?

I would think that you could find a generic replacement at just about any parts store..

You would think that, but here in Miami, all is different, when you walk in and say hello and they respond with "OLA" things just go downhill from there.

One guy at auto zone showed me a set of clip on's that has purple lights in them, don't want a clip on, want a bolt on set.

Mine are deteriorating the hose connection nipples will not stay on, all the washer hoses and especialy the nozzels turns my hands black when you touch them.

I want to replace it all. The pump works great and for a big rig it has very tiny resevoir, the one in my jeep is twice as big. The nozzels are the kind that squirt in 3 directions, up down and straight back against the window. the whole blade gets wet instantly, they made some cool stuff 20 years ago, I think mine are original

i have the same ones on my 87 bounder. i got replacements from one of the bus suppliers (i'm on the road now, and don't have the exact dealer). however try Mill Supply Index or Windshield Washers

You have a wet arm system.

mine were originally metal. they aren't made anymore. the replacements are plastic. the actual nozzle is adjustable with a small screwdriver. however, the hole that the bolt goes thru on the plastic ones are smaller than what you have. VERY carefully, drill out, progressively, working your way from a small bit to the size needed. if you drill immediately with the big bit needed (1/4" if i remember) you will crack the plastic (don't ask me how i know).

here's a thread and some pics of what i had. http://www.irv2.com/forums/f65/early...es-110396.html
