Challenger windshield washer lines - 04/25/20 09:07 PM

Hi
Does anyone on here have pictures showing the oem routing for the windshield washer lines in a 1970 Challenger? R/T hood if that matters. The car I am working on is missing everything after the bottle😂
Thanks

That is great, Dayclona! Thank you! The scan is a little blurry, but I think I'll figure it out. I will take a look at it today and let you know if I need any more info😀
By the way: Do you happen to know where I should look for a download able wiring diagram for 1970 Challenger?

Thanks both of you!👍👍
Thanks to your answers I have pretty much figured it out. I am still a little puzzled as when I hold the nozzles over their mounting holes the squirter hits a rib inn the hood. Are the squirter supposed to be bent sideways some? I should have the correct parts as they are labeled ut "70-74 E-body" and looks identical to the ones in the drawings you posted.

The squirters on my 70 are about 1/8 of an inch below the ribs....

Good info👍 But the squirt wil still hit a rib when fired😝

Position the squirter JUST below the upper surface of the cowl/hood
so they won't get caught when washing the car and you'll be good.

it was very common back in the day to have to adjust the squirter nozzles by slightly bending them on a lot of cars to get the spray pattern correct without hitting the ribs, be it hood or cowl mounting.
i had a homemade "tool" built out of thin wall tubing that snugly fit the nozzles so i could bend them up, down, and sideways until the spray pattern was where the driver wanted it, but it got lost over the years.
