The charcoal canister skid plates may now be purchased on my website here: Iconic Fabrication
For those that follow my build know I like to tinker and build new stuff for my FJ. @debFJVT came up with the idea to add a little protection to the vulnerable plastic fuel vapor canister in the rear of our FJ's. If this plastic box is damaged it could end up costing you $550+ to replace with a new one. A little investment now can save you $ and headache in the long run, especially for those of us who play hard with our FJ's or just like to bolt on cool stuff.
I suspect these fit model years 2007 - 2012. Not '13 or '14.
Constructed out of 12 gauge 304 stainless steel and welded with stainless wire, you have the option of leaving the box bare metal and it will never rust. Install can be as short as 30 minutes and is completely bolt-on, no need to remove any connections to the canister either because it just slides over like a sleeve. These things are super beefy and fully boxed to protect every angle.
Research:
Install: Polishing a shiny turd
Reason: Charcoal canister skid?
Deb, @jamesepoop, @Firemedic831 , and myself already have them installed and working perfectly. Bolt it on and forget about it!!!
Feel free to ask any questions down below. Thanks guys,
