Vacuum Pump Relocation DIY
#12
Here is what I did:
Parts cost $5-$7
I cut off the studs and used a cut off wheel to cut the bottom part of the front stud off so I could put a bolt through the top.
I pulled connector off the mount and used the front hole that the Christmas tree holder went in for the other bolt.
The bolts I used were 1/4-20 x 2 1/2" I put them through the two holes above then put 7/8 threaded spacers on.
I flipped the rubber shock mounts and put a washer on before mounting the pump. I secured everything with a nyloc nut.
With this setup the pump is just under the mount and drops between the crashbar. There is no need to rewire or plumb.
One issue I did have though was the bolt I used was hitting my Zeon winch. so I just bent the mount down a little bit.

Relocate Vac Pump
Espi,
Did you just reuse the bolts and drop it from the top to underneath or did you have to go out and buy new bolts? Looking to do this tomorrow. Thanks!

This one has to be the easiest I've seen yet.. most have to be rerouted elsewhere.. I like the simply drop in installation..and using almost all existing hardware or brackets.. Will have to bookmark this one for future references.

Very nice options to move the vacuum pump.
