Hey guys, Since fitting the bigger tyres I've encounted this issue where when in reverse and the wheel almost at left lock it caught on one of the rubber hose's which send's the water to the windscreen washer jets. I tried to perhaps fit a univesal washer bottle behind the air intake but there seems to be anoth Fluid container in that location. Anyone had this problem & how was it mended?

that happens with bigger tires, some lifts give enought to clear that. Once your tires wear down a bit you will be fine. Most guys relocate the washer reservoir to the very passerngers(drivers for you) rear part of the engine compartment. I have an electrical component back there. but thats the best place for relocation. If you don't relocate it and you offroad, when the wheel stuff you will rip off the lines and possibly the pump.. Better find a place to put it. I think there is a write up in the "Tech" section.................lets see some pics of the new meats

Yep, my 265's busted my pump off the bottle every time I went wheeling. after the first 3 times I finally relocated it to the passenger side rear engine fender wall. |
