dean..talk to me about the evap skid? Several JK owners in our club bought some hose, and clamps and moved theirs back underneath behind the real axel, (after they've had it torn off on trailrides) They said it wasn't too hard to do, but if there IS an EVAP Skip plate that will cover the EVAP canister in its Current location and protect it, and it is easy to install, than I am very interested in doing that!! Thanks

I ordered the Highrock Element Doors, Enclosures, upper halfs and RR mirror relocation brackets. I'll have them next week and the full doors will be stored until winter. Can't wait.

Skids
I installed both the Rancho Oil Pan Skid as well as the BenchMark Design Evac Can Skid. Like them both - the Ranch is stuck on the oil pan using RTV Silicon (use 2x4 and jack stands to press it on for 24 hours). The Evac Skid just uses the factory 3 bolts (just unhook the connectors first ;o)) drop it in the skid - bolt it back up - done.
Good stuff

Where did you get that evap skid? Looks solid!

As nice as those EVAP skids look, $115.00 shipped vs $20.00 - $30.00 for some rubber hoses, clamps and maybe heat tape to go around the hoses, and a little time..I'm staring to like the Re-location idea real quick!! lol, but those skids DO look tough and very easy to install.
