I have searched for answers to my questions but didn't really come up with anything. What is the reason that the brake reservoir is on the firewall? Has anyone with a 6,7,or 9 tip up put the reservoir on the sub panel that is accessible when the canopy is up? I am trying to not have anything aluminum on the firewall and would like to know if there would be any negatives locating it where I said. I have seen those with 8's putting them somewhere other than the firewall, but haven't found any 6,7,or 9's. I am not really interested in the pedal mounted reservoirs since that would be more to buy and I already have the Vans reservoir.
