Mopar's seem to be cheaper than aftermarket which is shocking :gasp: it's making me consider them seriously. Here's the Mopar website link:

The Kilby Relocation Kit moves it into the empty space above the axle. Nothing's going to get it up there. Did them on both our JK's, and not a single problem. I recommend adding a couple hose clamps to get good seals; their locations will be obvious. About a 2 hour job and worth every penny in peace of mind.

He shows to have a 2011. There have been several members on here who stated that the dealer won't warranty any gas, emission type problems if you relocate.

OP, you might check with your particular dealer for an answer to this.

A valid point, and one I considered. I decided there was a higher risk of trail damage than the system going bad.
