External shock reservoir location
Good morning,

I am having some trouble finding a suiting location in the front for my shock external reservoirs. My preference is to mount them under the bonnet but no room on a puma.

Currently have them mounted against the chassis behing the rear wheel but reading the adjuster knob is virtually impossible now. Mounting against shock tower is an issue to due to reservoir size.

Would love some input on this.

If it's for the image in your post,can you not just use a mirror??Maybe highlight the most used settings,assuming you don't use every single setting.You could even scratch your own markings on the visible side of the reservoir,so you don't need a mirror? Pov.spec,ftw. 2006, 110,TD5.

Hi Jim, thats exactly how I have been doing it so far, however when all is covered in mud its not ideal, this is also a pretty vulnerable locations, want the reservoirs and hoses out of harms way. Otherwise terrific shocks btw.
