392/3.0 Smaller Windshield Fluid Container

[Deleted User 38384]

I did a search and couldn't find anything other than a few comments about this, and when I do Google search I just get a bunch of generic containers not necessarily intended for use on the Wrangler.

Does anyone know of any kits or have any recommended containers to install a smaller windshield wiper fluid container on the 3.0 EcoDiesel or 392 Wrangler?

If anyone has done this mod themselves, any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

I'll be doing this fairly soon. Sometime within the next 2 months. Not looking to spend hundreds of dollars on it either.

I was also thinking about rigging up a system where I could drop in a store-bought plastic gallon jug of windshield wiper fluid, and just swap them in and out every time they run out. I know the diesels get pretty hot in the engine bay, do you think a plastic jug in there would melt on me?

Thanks and this should be a fun project. Looking forward to everyone's thoughts and answers. ?

No way would I try and rig up a gallon store bottle of fluid.

I do recall seeing a washer fluid bottle mod related to the 3.0, something to do with using gasser model metal inner fenders? I think there’s some YouTube videos. Sorry, let me get a bit more coffee in me.

Just rig up a Yeti jug, they're insulated right?! Why are you pursuing this project? (I know, crazy question considering lol) If it is for new wheel well liners, they make some compatible with our platforms now.

Would this work for you?

OK I’ll bite: Why are we doing this?

I have installed the Motobuilt one. Works and looks great, gives you the room you need for aftermarket inner fender liners.

Yeah like you guys guessed, I want to put a rough country fender liner in the front to match the one I have in the rear.

I just didn't want to say so and have the topic get derailed super quick.

Really appreciate those answers though. Already two awesome options. I'm probably going to lean more towards the makeshift one on that other thread. The motobuilt one looks clean as heck, but I feel like the DIY one might be a little more fun of a project and probably cheaper too.
