Been a while since I’ve visited.
I have to replace the relay rods.
Can I do it without removing the skid?

Can be done with the skid installed.
Look in the frequently asked questions for shock removal and install.

i did the ones on my 2016 apex xtx with the skid in the sled on my sled lift. i did take the air out of the shock to do them but did leave shock hooked up.
if i would have had time, i could have gotten away with re bushing mine but only found them a few days before i left for ride and that ride toasted the rods.

I have bought the steel relay rods myself & power coated them. Buy extra inserts that go into the 4 holes of the relay rods & grease them.Buy the steel relay rods from barn of parts.
