so i recently got my 33's on my 3inch xj and i want to trim my front fenders a little more and if so i will have the wiperfluid bottle sticking in the way on the drivers side(mine is 97+). any pics/ tips on relocating wiper bottle the cheapest easyest way. and what bottle did you use? if you used a xj bottle what year specificlly?

 

When took my fenders off I left the bottle where it is until it breaks from a rock. Then might relocate it.

 

im going to take of a 1.5" the fender from where i have it.. the wiper bottle is only a .5" up from the fender now. it needs to be moved

 

My flairs are also cut very high and the bottle shows, but the tire will hit the inner fender well and not the bottle. I dont think its needed to relocate it unless you find otherwise. I just sprayed the bottle black so its not such an eyesore.

 

Hey post a pic. I dont think ive seen it yet! Or maybe i have. I cant remember.

And i left mine there also. Your tire isnt gona hit it. Im just gona scrap mine once its not my DD anymore anyways. If you really dont like it, you can grab an old wiper bottle from a pre-97. They fit right behind the air box i believe.

 

how do i post a pic on a thread i have one on my computer?

 

You can use one from a zj... not sure if it'll work with the stock airbox tho

 

When you go to post a reply, at the top of the box next to the fonts and stuff there is a paper clip. click on that. Then click browse and find your picture. Be careful because if the pic it too big, it wont upload.

You mean like this?


I'm im the same boat,I'm scared a rock or stick will ruin it.A DD needs this on it,IMO.

I thought about building a metal shield to protect it.

 

You can always just keep it there and replace it if/when it brakes. You will survive a few days without it.

 

Like i said.. Only option i know of to move the washer bottle is to use a zj one or one from another vehicle. Heres a write up on it and a cowl intake. Just did the same cowl intake today actually..

i cut mine some more today to the top of the old fender flare line and it barely sticks out it i rub the inside top of the well before i hit that so i think im going to leave it seeing as i still need to bump stop..hopefully in the near future i can relocate just for looks.. i think i will try to use a 89 xj bottle

 

i think its strong enough to withstand a stick and as for rocks your going to do body damage before you hit and break it, and i know i will back off if i start to destroy my ffender panel

 

WOW, I really like that, that is a great idea

That seems like the best solution, im extremely close to having this same problem, but mine are cut just under the washer bottle
