half_n_half17 is an unknown quantity at this point

cut it off... who needs brake fluid? Seriously tho... i think you can move it out of the way. I've read in this forum somewhere about how/where to move it.

no, all of ours are either relocated or pushed out of the way. Mine is.

clownprince will become famous soon enough

you can lower it. Just have to modify the bracket it's on with a little bending and it will go in the hole below the one it's in. takes 2 minutes tops.

I have a 03, i don't know if this will make a different. Below the brake fluid bracket there's another bolt. No mod needed, just put it down on bolt and will clear everything.
