They worked but still...I just didn't like them. The innards of the coolant bottle being filthy probably didn't help. While hunting for replacements, I came across this:
20241016_170010.jpg20241016_170024.jpg20241016_170055.jpg
It was a bit of a no brainer, either 200 bucks locally for a reproduction part that only had a washer bottle, or this one for about 50 bucks less (I was able to get it for really cheap, it'd be roughly the same price otherwise) AND it came with a coolant overflow bottle.
It's a washer bottle and hose assembly for a 77-80 Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser. Takes a standard ANCO 67-14 washer pump, which is about 20 bucks.
The hose and coolant bottle cap are a separate part number.
Bottle: 85330-60011 - ~100 bucks from Amayama, shipped to the US, from the UAE
Cap assembly: 16405-60031 - ~40 bucks from Amayama.
Amayama sell OE parts for various Japanese car brands, often cheaper than the dealer, but there's always a catch. In this case, the catch is that the shipping times are VERY long (at least a month or three). I'm guessing that's probably how they're able to keep prices low(er).
The mounting tabs where the bolts will hold it down fit flush with the radiator support, although it can flex a small amount (I'd say up to 5mm variation in depth on the mounting surface) to accommodate variations.
Installing the entire unit to the radiator support required drilling out three 8 mm holes to fit three M8 bolts of 16mm length. I have the 22 inch radiator and it fit very snugly between the radiator, and the horns, as seen below.
I probably could've installed it a bit higher, but there was an existing hole beside the radiator from the old coolant bottle bracket that I enlarged, so I went with that. The hose was juust long enough, seemingly reaching its minimum bend radius from the radiator cap's barb. The hose itself was quite tight over the barb and there wasn't enough room for the little spring clamp to go over the barb, so I relocated it to the little overflow outlet hose even though it's unneeded there.

I'm sure someone that ever decides to look into the engine bay will get a kick out of seeing Japanese text on the warning sticker, in an old Mopar haha
EDIT: also, I have a 22 inch radiator - don't know if it'll fit with a 26 inch. Highly unlikely, as there's about an inch of space at a maximum between either side of the bottles. May have to relocate the horns if placing it in the same spot as me.

Great solution!
 
Nah go ahead. I guess this is now the main washer bottle thread lol. Looks like it always belonged there too. Might not work for a 65-68 Fury/C body though, as far as I'm aware the starter relay is mounted there and that "tail" towards the rear of the vehicle looks like it might interfere.

Agreed, it does not fit my 68 Fury due to location of that relay, I had forgotten about that.
The pic is in my 65 Chrysler, and 65 Fury has the relay on the firewall, so it fits that too.
I can't speak for 66-67, but I'd bet 65-66 are same and 67-68 are the same.

It would be nice to have a decent list of late-model bottles that fit our cars. Not all of us do factory-correct restorations, and it would be nice to have a reference of alternate parts.

Speaking of that - what's your alternator from?
 
Honestly I have no idea. It came with the engine, has an exposed cooling fan at the front. I suspect it's the stock alternator, or stock equivalent; it's single field I believe; I've got an external voltage regulator on the firewall. I'll take a better pic later on, in the meantime, this was the best one I could find of the alternator. PS hoses kinda blocking it though.

That one is not a US-type Chrysler alternator, all of them have an internal fan.
There was a Leece-Neville used on police cars, but it's pretty large.

I'm curious what yours is, but don't spend a lot of time photo'ing it for me.
 
Could be a locally made version as we had Chrysler Valiants sold down here, wouldn't be surprised if they used some bits from those cars. Definitely not a Leece-Neville, that thing is almost as big as my head. Maybe another aussie lurking this forum can chime in.

Useless trivia time:
Canadian Furys of the same years from 65 through to 72 were shipped as complete knock down kits to down under, then locally built and by all appearances, the firewalls were modified at the factory for RHD (the flange marking the hole for the steering column is still there, but the actual opening has sheet steel sealing it up). They also used the 66 Monaco dashboards too. Then the whole thing was sold as a Dodge Phoenix. only available in four door sedan or hardtop versions, with the former getting the 318, and the latter getting the 383. No 440 fun for us unfortunately.
I like how Chrysler Australia sold entry-level American cars as their top tier versions here haha, we're always getting the sloppy seconds :p
 
This is my first and only mopar so far but yeah I really like the way it looks. When I saw that the 67 Fury had floodlight gauges instead of backlit I was a bit unsure as I definitely prefer back lit versus front lit gauges. But these were back lit and at night they actually look pretty cool.
