    I went to the junkyard and got the coolant bottle off a 99 so i can get the old one out the way. But I realized that it doesnt have anywhere to bolt up to. So i was thinking can i get a double threaded screw and drill it into the strut tower?

    No the STB should still clear the coolant bottle.
