So I was cleaning out my coat closet this morning and look what I found! I completely forgot that I had this. :hidesbehindsofa:

I stored it away before I got my '13, got it done finally today.

The install was pretty straight forward. This does require some trimming of the fan shroud but it wasn't a big deal. I actually just used a utility knife to trim back the plastic and then used a Dremel sanding stone to clean up the edges (probably overkill considering you can't see the area you trim...but you know how I roll).

To get the PS fluid level to the recommended "just below the baffle when hot" it took a little less than 1 quart of MERCON V ATF ($5.99 @ NAPA)

This RPG reservoir added a lot of functionality and style to the YETI. If I could give a shameless plug...get yourself one of these reservoirs if you off-road at all. I did a quick run tonight that usually makes my PS pump whine...purred like a kitten with this piece installed....and it looks damn good!!

Some more jealousy coming your way.
Man that's nice. For some reason I thought you installed it on your other Raptor and it was gone with it. Glad you kept it.
"B-" my friend. lol
