Rock Slide Engineering Vacuum Pump Relocation Bracket

2012–2018 Jeep Wrangler JK 2-Door / 4-Door

AC-CRL-100

Overview:

The Rock Slide Engineering Vacuum Pump Relocation Bracket is a precision-engineered solution designed specifically for Jeep Wrangler JK models from 2012 to 2018, including both 2-door and 4-door variants. In 2012, Jeep relocated the EVAP canister from under the hood to the frame rail below the front bumper, which can interfere with aftermarket front bumper installations, such as the Rigid Series bumpers. This bracket allows you to reposition the vacuum pump and EVAP canister, ensuring a clean fitment and maintaining proper vehicle function without compromising your off-road upgrades.

Ideal for Jeep enthusiasts who want to upgrade their front bumper without the hassle of clearance issues, this relocation bracket provides a reliable and durable mounting solution that preserves factory emissions components while enabling seamless integration with aftermarket accessories.
