    I need to get on this. I've been meaning to do it for a while. Just keep forgetting.

    Which can do you have?

    I got mine off ebay. $18 shipped. Just make sure to take it all apart to clean and re-seal everything before installing it....I found aluminum shavings in it from where they drilled it. I haven't had any issues with it yet. Although I may move it to make room for a compressor. I ditched the chessy vinyl tubing for 5/8" fuel line. Looks much better and somewhat appears stock.

    Honestly rear diff mod shouldn't affect warranty at all. Oil Catch Can??? I dunno. I'm sure they would try to say something but in reality it does more good than harm so who knows?

    What is the oil catch can actually doing? (please don't reply with "its catching oil, herpdy derpy")

    The can is going in line on some system, what system is that?

    I understand waiting out the warranty...but its completely reversible. I too am under warranty. I'll keep the catch can in now and keep the intake clean, versus dirtying it up further down the road and having more problems and being out of the warranty window.

    I agree with that. If there is a issue you can pull it pretty quick and they will never even know it was there. Now I just need to get off my lazy ass and do it.

    I first installed a cheap ebay oil catch can that I modified but is did not perform well at all. So I figured since I have such a nice truck I would spend a little more and put a quality catch can in my truck. Hell we spend big bucks on not as important mods so it was worth it to me. I replace my ebay junker with a "[FONT=&quot]Saikou Michi Co" quality engineered/built catch can. I really like the internal dip tube design and the quality 1/4 turn ball valve for drainage. This is a product that will last the lifetime of this truck and more. Here is the link to my new can.

    I love this mod and want to put one on.


    Has anyone put one on a 6 speed off road? Seems like the clutch and brake system take up more room and take up the location many have put the can in.
