That is a RR skid plate with a 2.5 gallon viair air-tank.
The skid plate is perfect for what I was needing (wanted to protect the EVAP and needed a place for the tank).
I've got high hopes for it, also it couldn't have been a better time to be made available.

You can purchase the airtank seperately or as a system.

For my OBA project.
I still have to run plumbing and the electrics for the OBA system.
Most likely place a quick-disconnect at the front and rear.

It's the evap canister. Mine is two door and this setup will work if you have a lift. It's too close to the driveshaft if you don't have a lift. It also doesn't fit if you have a Currie Dana 60. I had to cut off the side where the evap canister is and mount the canister above the axle. The skid plate is very well built. I highly recommend.

Say Lee... which compressor is it you have mounted behind the lights? I have the 400C (from the HD kit) and it didn't look like there would be enough room, but I really like that location!

I started my install today and have my tank where the muffler used to be. I just need to get the rest wired up...

I have mine on the "workbench" and working through some issues that came up. I did some investigative work on what it will take to install. My major concern is the ability in not being able to properly drain the tank, do to how it is mounted. I've been in contact with a welding shop to add a port in the tank where it would be in a better location for drainage. The other problem I'm anticipating is what lee described above without the lift, I don't have a lift on my jk.
Really like the RR product.
