Just bought this fro Cruiser Corp Coolant Overflow - Bottle - Bracket - Kit - Large - FJ40 - FJ45 - FJ55 - Fj60 - FJ62 - FJ80 - FJ Cruiser - BJ - 1958-2009 - https://cruisercorps.com/products/large-coolant-overflow-bottle-tank-with-bracket?variant=12736734330946

Has anyone purchased this reservoir, and if so, wĵere did you mount it?

There is an inlet at the top amd an outlet at the bottom, but there is only one outlet on the neck of tue radiator. How have you rigged these two inlet/outlets up?

Pics would be great!!!
 
Idk where to mount the tank, but the hose from the rad goes to the bottom of the tank like in their pic. The tank should have a/f in it and has a full hot and cold line on it. The port on the top is to allow air in and out plus an overflow if the vehicle overheats or the system overfilled. You can install a hose to the top so it can drain to the ground instead of all over the engine compartment.
 
Here is a overflow that was installed by the PO in Louie. Doesn't look like the City Racer one. I'm not sure where is was sourced from. Looks like I need to add some fluid to the system. I will put it on the winter maintenance list.
