WS Washer Delete Feasibility

I am looking to shave my firewall when I convert over to Vintage Air. With this said, I would like to shave the space where the WS Washer hoses run as well. To add to this, I put on a universal WS washer and the first time I used it, it blew my intermittent wiper module.

My question is how much of a pain is it to run no WS Washer on a daily driver?

There's no need to loose your washer function , You can feed the washer squirters by running the hoses from INSIDE the cab into the cowl space . I shaved the complete gutter rail off and smoothed the firewall and The washer plumbing will run from inside the cab ,under the dash with the washer reservoir still in the engine compartment where it was stock .

Re: WS Washer Delete Feasibility

These trucks had a WS washer????😂😉

I have put thousands and thousands of miles in probably 2 dozen of these trucks and I’ve never had one that worked (in fairness I never even checked in most of them), so for me at least, that’s a non issue.
