Well, I had the evap canister relocation on my to do list but did not prioritize it, and on the Barrett run I crunched it and broke open the front of it. I was getting a "Small Leak" error code but I pulled it off to inspect it and see if I could repair it and made it worse so looks like I am in the market to replace it.

Before I go do a bunch of reasearch, any suggestions for most economical way to replace it from the other JK owners? The relocation kit is on order now angel

I did the Metalcloak relocation kit after I cracked my first canister.

For some reason I thought these were in the $500 range, but new looks like about $200. I bought one from a 2017 on eBay for $55 grin

I didn't realize MetalCloak made them, I should have checked and grabbed it local. I ended up getting the Nemesis Industries aluminum one, they all seem to work the same way but theirs only required modifying one of the lines instead of 2 and their instructions were crazy detailed on the re-routing of everything. It also looked like they move it further away from the exhaust and I plan on eventually doing a high clearance exhaust so want to get it as far away as possible just in case of interfearance in the future.

My kit relocated the canister to above my rear axle.  I never had any issues with it, or the location.
