this was actually one of my first "mods". i had a inline on-demand waterpump with strainer lying around and once i got my JK i knew what i was doing with it lol..

i didnt put my valve on the rear corner since my JK is brand new (maybe in the future lol) . i did though put a valve next to my hitch receiver.

i put the fill on the drivers side of the bumper. pickup was on the inside of the passenger side of the bumper. i did notice too with my setup i got a bit of vacuum/pressure with the pump so i installed 2 check valve vents towards the upper of the bumper hidden on each end. no vacuum/pressure relief now when i open the fill port.

i mounted the pump similar to others but because i have a straight back exhaust i have all the space in the world with the stock muffler removed. only thing i havent decided on yet was how i was going to install a splash plate to protect the pump a little during bad weather or offroading. currently i have everything undercoated with spray lining.

i will post more pictures later if anyone wants to see. dont have much at my disposal at the moment.

also found a video from when i first installed it.. not sure why the sound disappeared but pump only runs when the valve is opened. also the switch was installed to stop passerbys from just turning my pump on killing my battery and emptying the tank.
