Default Relocating the gear lube reservoirs

I need to relocate the factory gear lube reservoirs on my '05 382. Whoever the heck came up with the idea of locating them on the transom had their head up their a#$! What's the best way?

They have lately been relocated to a more convenient location. I will check Monday to see what you will need to move them.

On my 89' 311, I had to replace my older style with the newer style cause the old ones started leaking. The marine service company I USED TO USE, (NOT, REPEAT NOT, GUSMAN) mounted the new ones on the transom. I couldn't believe it. Of all the places he could have mounted them that was the worst. So a few more feet of line. So what????? That pissed me off.

9:20 AM, Daryl just emailed me and the new brackets are on the way. He will need to order the hose extensions. That's what I call service! Thanks Roberts and Daryl!
