    Did I Mount my Reservoirs Too Far Forward?

    As you can see my reservoirs are mounted 11 1/2 inches forward of the 3/4 tube on the top of the drivers foot box. Will this interfere with the gas struts of the hood hinge mechanism?

    I can move them back towards the foot box if needed. Rather not if the strut will clear. If I need to move them what is a good distance to have them so there will be no interference?

    Thanks much
