I'm working on a bracket for my Grove reservoir. I read here that the upper portion of the firewall angles forward. I'm trying to determine how much. Also where is this shown in the drawings?
 
It matches the 8 degrees of panel tilt. I recall there is somewhere in the instructions that talks you through bending the firewall to match. For my Grove reservoir install, I believe I had to add a 1/8" spacer to clear the bent portion.
 
Yes, I just made a spacer between it and the wall. You could make a new angle altogether, but the spacer seemed to be the easiest solution.
 
Well... There's the easiest way and the way I seem to do it. Sometimes also know as the hard way. :D But in the end it will be the way I want it.
 
I put two standard washers a side between the firewall and the reservoir's bracket. Easy and fast.
