Salvagedcircuit Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 I've been looking around on ebay listings and in the jeep service manual and everywhere I could find mentions the vacuum canister is screwed to the front bumper. Mine is not. My front bumper has no holes in the front face to mount it. Instead, my vacuum canister is bolted into one of the side A-shaped fender brackets behind the bumper. It is held on with one of the two mounting bolts. That seems like a recipe for failure if I leave it mounted this way. If anyone has photos from their renix comanche vacuum canister, I'd appreciate it! Maybe I should just move it below the coolant expansion tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatslug87 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 That diagram is incorrect. The holes are on the underside of the bumper, the two hex head bolts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglescout526 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Does this question pop up a lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought my bumper was after market and the front holes were just missing. Thanks again! 17 minutes ago, eaglescout526 said: Does this question pop up a lot?

But that being said, I feel like there is no correct answer to this. Number 1 answer has to be put it where ever the hell you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiatslug87 Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 BTW, there are three slots so the larger oval vac canister can be placed in the same location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser54 Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 I mounted mine in the engine bay and eliminated all those hoses and piping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
