The Windshield Washer Bag Hanger Bracket is an OE-style engine bay restoration component designed for 1964 Ford Galaxie, 1964 Mercury Monterey, and 1966–1970 Ford Bronco models equipped with the factory washer bag system. This bracket restores the correct mounting point used to suspend the windshield washer bag, returning proper placement and factory-correct appearance to the washer system layout.
From the factory, Ford used a dedicated hanger bracket to support the washer fluid bag in the engine compartment. Over time, original brackets are often bent, corroded, missing, or discarded during engine bay repairs and repainting. When the bracket is missing or incorrect, the washer bag may be improperly supported or positioned, detracting from originality and underhood presentation. Replacing the hanger bracket restores the correct factory mounting solution used on these applications.
Manufactured as an OE-style reproduction, this washer bag hanger bracket matches original dimensions, profile, and mounting geometry. It is designed to install in the factory location and properly support original-style washer bags without altering surrounding components. Accurate reproduction ensures the washer system appears and functions as originally intended by Ford.
This bracket is suitable for stock restorations and detail-correct engine bay refresh projects where maintaining correct component layout is important. It is especially relevant for early Broncos and full-size Ford cars where washer bags were a visible underhood feature.
Offered as X-Parts by Auto Metal Direct, this bracket is a third-party OE-style replacement selected to meet AMD’s standards for fit and application accuracy.

Auto Metal Direct is a team of true car guys with years of experience in sheet metal reproduction, car restoration and paint/body work. We believe that quality is not subjective! Our mission is to provide the best customer experience for the Ford, Mopar and GM classic car markets - both in products and in service.
Our panels are made from proper gauge steel and include all correct-as-original clips, tabs, flanges, bends and seams. Each time a prototype body panel comes off of a new tooling, we test fit it on a car. The marked up prototype is then used to change and improve the tools, and a new prototype is produced. This procedure might be repeated multiple times but, once the part is finally approved, you can be assured of a quality part.
