Default 87 Cherokee, vacuum ball removal? How do I?

Sorry to be 'that guy' but I have searched the forum and found alot of threads but nothing that answered this....How or where or what do I remove to get to my vacuum ball that is behind the bumper? What components do I remove to get to it. Fender wells??? Bumpers??? driver's door???? I am going to inspect it and then relocate it.

Just resond with a link to a thread that explains it, or take the time to tell me. Thanks again!

The reservoir can be removed out the right side of the bumper if you remove the plastic end cap from the bumper. The cap has three fasteners, one top and bottom of the bumper, the third is up underneath toward the tire. You may have to push the plastic air dam slightly out of the way to get to that one. It would be a good idea to get some PB blaster or equivalent on those fasteners before you try to remove them. The reservoir itself is held in place by two screws you can see on the front of the bumper.
