I have a 1980 CJ7 that I've had for about 6 weeks. It didn't have the coolant overflow tank and washer reservoir on it when I bought it. I picked up these two tanks yesterday. Can someone please post a picture of where they should be located in the engine bay?

Thanks,

Bob
 
This might help you. Look below the brake master cylinder.

Thanks, that was helpful.

My radiator cap is on the right side of the Jeep and the overflow fitting is pointing to the right. Seems very different than your Jeep. Any idea why this is?
 
I don’t have the original radiator, but the reservoirs in question are original and in the factory location for a 1982 and yours is a 1980. They might differ. Regardless, the location of the cap should not be an issue. Run a longer hose and route it correctly. Good luck.
 
I have an 81 with the AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l and mine has no coolant overflow reservoir
