But if you have to burn $100 bucks then you should go with the relocation kit.

Oh I also grabbed a pair of pliers and bent the E-Brake line holder so that it doesn't rub on the canister. That way it would rub a hole in the canister. Easy stuff man.

Relocate requires an alternative for your muffler (to my knowledge) and could void your warranty on the evap canister. That thing is about a grand and is also covered quite a long time by chrysler because it is part of your emissions. That being said- I bought the skidrow skid plate for it.

Heard about the possibility of codes too with the relocate so Poison Spyder it is. Came in today. And 2 stickers too. Order it and a $12 t-shirt (to get over $100 order) from Northridge4x4 and they'll even cover the shipping.

Man, I am glad that I saw this thread!
After I determine what exactly is going on with my evap emission system (please let it not be a hole in the canister
) and get it fixed, I am definitely going with the skid plate! The little off-roading area near my house has some pretty hardcore washboard action. This forum rocks!

I relocated. Next I am relocating the muffler where the canister was, then I will enlarge the storage tub. All jeepswag.com products--great stuff!
BTW: Evaporative canister is about $80, not "a grand".
