Anyone here running an oil catch can with your boosted setup? I'm having a hard time trying to figure out where I should mount one since space is at a premium on the driver side. I'm curious to see where others may have mounted it. One idea I had was just to rivnut it on top of the fusebox. It would be a chore to access the fusebox but I rarely do anyways. Here are some pics to show what I'm talking about. I'm def open to other ideas. Thanks!

 

you can see mine over on the right side by the fuse box

 

Thanks. I'll have to rebook at that area. The way I have the coolant lines oriented seems to prevent me from using that space. Admittedly when I did my install, I didn't give myself enough slack and had to run the coolant line a little tight.

 

you also have the hydroboost master cylinder that takes up more room. i just have a regular old vacuum booster that the early offroads and all sports had.

 

Yep. On top of fuse box is really the only thing I can figure out at the moment. I just realized that anything along the driver side fender is going to cause interference with my hood strut.

 

I have mine mounted where the battery is. I have no battery up front and a tube core support so pics won’t help, but any space near the battery or behind the headlight?

 

Another spot I was looking at is to the left of the battery but it would be a very tight fit to whereas it wouldn't be the easiest thing in the world to unscrew when it comes time to dump it. Not sure if I want that hassle but I'll def look at it again.

 

i have this red switch for my winch in this spot. might be able to fit it there?

 

This might be the spot. Couple of rivnuts and it may work. Thanks! @wrmathis @Sterling_vH111

 

I couldn't figure out where to mount mine where it was accessible enough that it wasn't a pain in the ass to service my catch can so I built a basic, scabby square tube aluminum bracket in front of the drivers side headlight. Works pretty good for myself.

 

What’s this RAD aluminum tank?
Not supercharger coolant, is it?

 

Yup, that's what she be.

It's an ebay find and likes to leak small amounts of coolant that crusts up around the fill lid.

 

why not on the pass side fender?

 

Oh damn... I don't have all that mess on my 2011 taco.

 

I may have added a few bits and pieces.
