Poor start to a request for help

[Msivley]

Like the title says. Starting a post w/o all the critical information I wish I had to provide you guys with.

We recently installed a Demello 3 hoop bumper ( Steel no Winch ) on my 203 v8 sport edition 4runner. After install I noticed the washer fluid reservoir hanging lower than I cared for. ( this is where I pics to share )

I have searched ( maybe not using the rite keywords ) via google and on here , but only finding threads on Corollas , supercharged applications , and 2010 + FJs. Im sure someone on here has an aftermarket bumper on a 2003-2009 that could either confirm or is there a washer fluid relocation kit for these?

I am SURE this posts exists somewhere but I couldn't find it. If you find it would you please link it to me so I can go follow through it?

Thanks for any advice or suggestions in advance!

Melissa

I don't have a 4th gen, but those look relevant to me. Searching is an art for sure - keep at it, because the info you want is always out there.

I haven't heard of a physical relocation kit but most people just do it themselves. You basically just extend everything up into the engine compartment directly above where it sits now. You have to modify the container a bit to make it work but it isn't too difficult. Check out this page of [MENTION=2812]medic[/MENTION]83 build over on the 120 forums it's a little more detail on the subject.

KidVermicious ! Thanks for the great links. not sure why my search did not return with these. I will work on my "Google Search Skills" ray2:

Don't know if I like the PVC solution in #2 link but definetly better than what I have. Still reviewing the options in link #1 ( It had more links and spanning out ).

Really starting to think Google doesnt like me.....

Thanks for the help guys will post up with pics once completed!!!

2014+ OEM Tacoma res should be bolt in and a clean solution from what I've been told.

any new info/advice

Anyone have any new info/pics/advice on a relocate. Specifically from my research it looks like a tacoma bottle relocate would be the easiest route. Thanks in advance!
