Default Washer hose to back window
Has anyone else had issue with this coming off when they try to use the rear washer? Mine will come off & shoot in the rear of the truck.

A bit annoying, to say the least!

There is a little plastic clamp that should be on there. if it is not all the way on the spout on the hard top it will keep blowing off when you try to use it. The clamp also holds the plug to plug the line when you are not using the hardtop.

Well at least no kittens were harmed in the making of this thread.

Mine was fine for months. Then one day I had my twins sitting int he back seat, and I went to use the spray. Next thing I have two 11 year olds screaming "Hey! What the...!!! Where's all this water coming from?!"
that's awesome. I ought to hook it up out the rear window for goofy "gotta follow too-close" drivers

If you do not get that clamp holding the plug on right, that tube will shoot off all the time. BUT it does not work that well with the soft top on and neather does the rear wiper or defroster.

I don't have a problem with it coming off, but I do have a problem with it getting pinched to the point no fluid will squirt. Looks to be to long. Maybe I'll cut it shorter so I only have to worry about it coming off
