    There are a bunch of threads on this, and one in particular I can find at the moment. Options range from repurposing Nalgene bottles to using a long tube of PVC pipe horizontally, to scabbing in used reservoirs from other vehicles.

    If you use the TW Seach Google function (at the bottom of the search window), you'll get a lot. Use this phrase (for example): windshield washer reservoir relocate

    Yeah, I did all that. There's a whole bunch of results. I just wanted to see what someone I know has done. I spent a few hours searching around last night. I wasn't expecting to relocate the windshield washer bottle this week when I did the dual battery set up. I'm driving to Ensenada on Friday to see the end of the Baja 1000 on Saturday so I figured I would save some time and ask being that I don't have a whole lot of time.

    There's some good write ups on TTORRA and Expedition portal as well.

    I haven't seen the nalgene bottle idea yet though. That's a good one. I think I'll go with that one especially since I have a nalgene bottle.

    Thanks for the idea Scocar and the search use function lesson. I know it bugs me when people ask a question they can search for but I did spend a considerable amount of time searching. I also know Ferny probably did something cool to mod the bottle.

    Yeah, I not trying to be a dick or anything, but it is really easy to overlook that google option, which provides such better results than the basic TW search. I can picture the thread I was thinking about, but I can't find it because I don' have any time! I remember some of the posts in that referring to TTORA, too.

    Hmmm...I've got 4.5 with 1"spacers. Hopefully that 1/4" won't mess to much up.

    I'm not much about that bfh life. But that means my offset makes my wheel stick out 1/4" more. I'm on 17x9s and I see your on 15x10s....

    Maybe the 1/4 inch is negligible with an inch less of wheel

    Better get used to the BFH life if you want 12.5's. 3.5" BS puts you further away from the frame but you'll be into the firewall more.

    I'd run your current MTRs into the ground. Tub for the 35s and run the 33s, don't trim the fender though. :thumbsup:

    For 33s, there's no need for it. 35s on the other hand, yes, but it's something like 2" in the front and 1.5" in the rear.

    I'd personally wait until you'll order 35s and then trim.
