Lexus GX470 (2003–2009) Washer Fluid Relocation Reservoir

Upgrade your engine bay and protect your washer system with our washer fluid relocation reservoir for the Lexus GX470. This kit replaces the factory plastic washer reservoir with a durable, custom-fabricated aluminum unit designed to relocate the system safely into the engine bay.

The reservoir mounts behind the passenger-side headlight and in front of the air box, keeping it protected from trail hazards while maintaining easy access. It is TIG-welded from 5052 aluminum and topped with a vented billet 6061 aluminum cap for long-term durability and a clean, professional appearance.

The tank also retains factory functionality by including a dedicated port for the OEM washer fluid level sensor, allowing the factory warning system to remain fully operational.

Why Relocate the Washer Fluid Reservoir?

Relocating the factory washer reservoir is highly recommended for off-road and modified vehicles due to several common issues:

• High-clearance bumpers leave the factory reservoir, pumps, and hoses exposed to rocks and trail debris

• Larger tires can contact the stock reservoir at full suspension compression

• Wheels with aggressive offset or wheel spacers increase scrub radius, causing tire interference with the factory reservoir

• Exposed pumps and hoses clutter the engine bay

This relocation solves all of the above while improving both protection and aesthetics.
