how do you remove the washer fluid reservoir?
I am trying to temporarily take out the washer fluid reservoir. I unbolted the two bolts holding it towards the top, but it seems like something is bolting it into the car from the bottom. How do i take it out? Can I just pull really hard?

Just pull up hard... nothing else holding it like a bolt or nut.

There is a fat "peg" that sticks out the bottom of the tank and into a large hole in the frame rail.
Its not a snug fit, so just pull up.
