panel under wipers

Hi All
I have a 1967 chevy c10 pick up and i need to fit new washer jet and new tubes.
IT look like i have to remove the panel above to get to them?
IF that the case when you remove the bolts from the nuts do the nut stay on the panel or do they fall away.
Many Thanks

Re: panel under wipers

There is only four bolts and 4-5 screws on top that run along the grill area. No nuts to fall unless you have PO podge work to deal with.

Welcome to the board. As Panelman indicated you shouldn't have any trouble removing the cowl vent panel. You will have to remove the windshield wipers first....

The washer switch is integrated with the windshield wiper switch. You push in on the wiper switch knob to activate the washer. When you push on the knob it activates the washer and turns the wipers on low speed. The windshield washer pump is built into the windshield wiper motor.

Does your truck have the bracket for the washer bottle? Here is what the bottle looks like....

Just a quick hijack! Is that the original location for the washer bottle for the 71 C10? I ask because at some point long ago my C10 got a secondary battery tray mounted in that location.

The washer bottle is currently located above the driver's wheel well.

Regards,
Mike

Re: panel under wipers

HI LOCKDOC,
Thanks for the picture iv just had a look and it would seem
that where it was there no bracket just holes?.

Hi Mike. Drivers side inner fender would be the correct location for the '71. Only the '67 and '68 trucks were mounted on the core support.

Yes, there should be two holes one above the other....

If you can't find a bottle and bracket over there I will send you an extra one I have if you want to pay he postage on the package. The original pump may not work even after you get everything figured out.

If you don't need a stock bottle you could probably find one that would work off of another vehicle. A later one with the pump built into the bottle would work also.

I've had the same luck as you with the '67's Michael, although the one in the '70 I had worked and the one in my '68 CST junk yard find works.
