Re: windsheild washer pump

More than likely the rubber orffice has let go so it can't pump. I had this happen to several of mine so I installed a late model jug with electric pump on it. It works so much nicer. I wired it to the factory switch also.

After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Sounds like a great idea, any details on the install?

Re: windsheild washer pump

yea, i picked a universal pump a few months ago from a flea market. It looks like it will work with my old pump, but i have t wire it to the old pump. which wires do i use? the pump has a 12v+ and a ground. the directions say to wire it to the 2 wire plug going into the old pump, but when i remove it, the windshield wipers dont work. there is also a single plug with a black wire and a 3 wire plug with a blue wire and 2 yellow wires. any help would be great!
