Well after hitting it with a stick and wrecking the "Detector: Evaporative" PN 4891685AA, has anybody moved it higher like up above the rear axle with there own custom way or just gone with the aftermarket stuff?

If you have done something custom, please post pics.

I know a few people have done custom stuff to raise it and or relocate it. Do a search and I know you will find some threads.

Also, one of our members sells a kit now to relocate it. I got one from him and it is a really nice setup. PM him: Woods

Here is the kit:

There is a place local to me that sells a skid plate for it; they are not a board sponser so I cannot give you a direct link to their site, but if you want the link, I will send it to you in a PM...

Kilby also sells a relocation kit that puts it above the rear axle -nice and snug.

Probably would not be that hard to make a skid plate.

Rumor has it a recall is coming out after the 1st. Might want to wait.
