I'm not sure what you mean by bicycle innertube trick but did you try wrapping a ratchet-strap around the circumference of the tire right in the middle of the tread? Works every time for me... especially with heavy-duty tire on construction equipment (may have to sub a chain & binder for the ratchet-strap on those).

with those generals the side wall would not spread for shit even with heavy duty strap,so what i did went to wal-mart picked up 12.5r bike inner tube stretched it around inner bead of rim aired it up a little bit to fill in gap from tire and bead,shit load of soapy water then began filling tire as tire expands if you keep spring soapy water on bead where inner tube is the tire bead will set and push the inner tube off at same time

Yeah nice start. That was where the factory dual battery setup went on the heavier pickups.
I had the same problem with the washer fluid. Before you buy any parts, you should be able to see the two hose connections from looking up from underneath. If you fill up the container with water, you should be able to see if its leaking out of one the hose connections and just run a new piece of tubing quickly for a buck or two. The one I had to replace ran up to a plastic double male ended connector along the top side of the fender.

Are you willing to share your future plans, or keeping this a surprise?

OK apologies for not posting in few days i broke a damn tooth, so Ive been hurting dentist 2morrow but he is a pic of my fleabay catch can ,since the fleabay catch can has 2 inlets which just end right inside i used to own a company in phx building beer systems for various bars,Glendale arena , spring training camps for MLB ,i had a SS tap tube that goes inside of a beer tower that had a perfect bend in it,so i slide it threw one of the fittings then flared it so should work just fine on inlet side that away oil/vapors go to the bottom of tank then also filled tank with the tweeker pipe packing SS sos big wire pads things so it keep oil down ... here is catch can ill take more pics tonight of inside,and the way i mode it....
