Where do you relocate the small coolant tank to when you install a front strut bar?

judging from the picture below i think it stays where it is, unless u custom made them and didnt take the coolant tank into consideration

Hi
If you are using a TEP bar, heat the corner of the tank up with a heat gun and put a dimple in using the edge of aerosol can to clear the bar.

My Walloth & Nesch bar, which is a spit'n image of the Hartge bar required me to mount my coolant tank to the underside of the welded in mounting tabs. I used longer bolts and delrin spacers. |

blair's got it right. The easy way is just to get some longer bolts and spacers and mount it on the bottom of the tabs. I have the W&N bar too. when I get the time I'm going to weld in new tabs lower to get that factory look... |
