Default Who sells Vacuum T wiper/headlight

I'm looking for the one that goes from the vacuum tank, to wiper vacuum pod and maybe passenger side headlight vacuum pod. This has the two larger diameter hoses horizontally (5/16 or 19/64 or .303") and vertically has the smaller hose (1/8 or 9/64 or .130"). Doesn't seem anyone sells the replacement and the hose kits do not include it.

Hi D,
I believe the tee you describe isn't the tee used AS you described.
The tee with the 1/8" nipple is the source of the vacuum supply for the operation of the heater/defroster control on the shifter console.
I'm unaware of a current source for the tee in THAT configuration, although there are tees readily available that have the 2 large nipples and 1 small nipple… the larger nipples are at a right angle to each other.
Regards,
Alan

Here's the tee you describe.
It's location is different than in your 70 car.

That's the one. I did glue mine together and it should be good. Figured if it was available I would order one to have just in case.
