Yeah, you made a new mount.  I'll bet you even did some welding.  That is
not my definition of simple.  :)

It's cool you didn't need new lines though.

Huh???  I used my mtx PS reservoir and lines with no problem.  What did I do
wrong?  I did make a new mount for the reservoir, but didn't even need to
disconnect the lines to get the change completed.

This is by no means a simple thing.  You can't use the ATX overflow unless
you use the ATX battery tray.  And you can't use either unless you use the
ATX PS reservoir.  And you can't use the ATX PS reservoir with the stock MTX
PS lines, they're too short.

Best bet is to use the MTX bottle and leave it hang at the bottom.  It's
fine that way.  Or, if the battery is in the trunk, AutoZone sells generic
overflow tanks that you can use.  That's what I used on my '93.

Or to use a ATX unit that mounts inside the passenger fender out of the way.
