Have seen GM illustrations of the 54 era washer system set up but not where to locate the nozzles.

Anyone seen templates for this?

Thanks

I think that Greg Hill might have the installation illustrations.

Attached is an image that I think Greg mailed to me long ago (2006).

I, too, would like to see a template or measurements for the correct dealer installed location for the nozzles.

Just e-mailed Tim a pdf with measurements. He is the image posting genie.

I have an original 50 model in my garage with washer system presumably added when the truck was new. I can take measurements if necessary.

I’ll post the factory instructions and illustrations as soon as my real computer finishes updating its operating system - 40 more minutes.

Two grand children are here today (1 and 3 years old) to “help” decorate the Christmas tree. I might get distracted every so often.

4 pages of 1954 Chevrolet Truck washer installation instructions are attached.

Please note: the 1954/55st wiper and foot-actuated washer unit are both different from earlier GM truck units.

Thank go to Greg Hill

Merry Christmas - Tim
