Washer fluid tank relocation

[Charlie207]

Has anyone relocated the windshield washer fluid tank, and what did they use if changing to a different tank? My new bumper offers much more clearance than the factory Yukon cover, but exposed the area where the tank is placed, in front of the driver fender liner.

The tank itself is like 18" tall, and has the pump motors exposed on the front-faceing area of the tank. I'm looking at buying two small tanks w/pumps, and plumbing them together, in a square configuration, to sit in the spare battery tray.

My other option is to get some thinner sheet metal, and bend/shape a cover to tie into the bumper and available frame & crossmember holes, but I suppose I'd rather just get rid of the low-hanging objects altogether.

Here is an aftermarket tank w/pump I was looking at...

I'd get two, and sandwich them back-to-back, but run some type of plumbing to connect them, and then connect the front wiper hose to one pump, and rear wiper hose to the other. With the two tanks plumbed together I'd only have to fill one tank.

Found this 1gal. container. I could reuse my grommets and pumps.

I have the same problem but worse. I'm installing Izzy Fab inner fenders for long travel suspension. Original tank won't work at all.
Went full retard and bought this tank. Ridiculously expensive, but it will match the aluminum inner fenders, fuse box and coolant overflow tank.

I ended up ordering two of the tanks from US Plastic, along with some caps and 90° elbows to connect the tanks, and place the sandwiched assembly on the spare batter tray.

I'll reuse my pumps and rerout the wiring and tubing as needed.

I saw some of the fancy off-road tanks, and also saw their prices. People are smoking crack.
