Default Relocating windshield wiper fluid nozzle

I added a hilift jack to my hood and now the nozzle simply sprays into the jack. Any tips or write ups on moving this?


(yes, I know there's a search feature, but when I do it from my phone I get everything but or it says no results found.)

It may be much easier to move the Hi Lift.

That's the same solution I was coming to sadly ... I was planning on moving it to my Gobi rack, but was hoping I could do something until then ... Oh well.

I am in the same boat with the jack mounted on the hood. I feel like this is the worst answer for this question. They sell the brackets to put the jack there, so there has gotta be a way to relocate the nozzle. Just to say "move the jack" is not a very worthy post to this question.

Default Bosch clips from local GM Parts counter

I just went on another jeep forum and found a better answer than just move the jack. They were saying we could get some Bosch clips from our local Parts counter, and then the fluid would squirt right at the wipers. I am going to do more research on this concept and it might be an easy fix.

Keep us informed. I would love to keep the jack there. I don't like most other mounting options either because it sticks up and a branch would hit it, or on the bumpers where it can get dirty. Blah. The companies making these should have some idea ....
