    Fluid is squirting out of the driver side nozzle while driving fast on rough terrain (baja trips). I'm sure its from the fluid flying up and landing hard and forcing the fluid through the pump/hose.

    I've seen the pvc reservoir mod for the gen 1, but nothing about this problem. Maybe a baffle would help? I could see building a pcv resi with baffles maybe...

    Any thoughts?

    It might be the duck bill in the fitting in the hood. Can you maybe switch the fittings in the hood and see if it follows the fitting?

    Maybe, but I've seen this issue on other trucks.
