JLT Oil Catch Can for Dummies

[Raptized]

OK. For future information seekers. To you can not cut the factory hose as it is a tube. You must use 1/2" inside diameter tubing and retro fit and oil catch can as long as it is not baffled as this cause an erratic idle much like if one had a huge cam installed (not good if you don't.) Use a razor blade to make a small slice down the tube to remove the factory connectors from the tube for use with new hoses. [emoji106]

JTL says that this setup will not work on a supercharged raptor. is there another brand that will? What do I need to do?

What brand did you finally go with...I also have a Whippled Raptor and wonder if the JTL is now made to fit a SCed Raptor..? Anyone know?

Since this is such a difficult and time consuming part to put on the vehicle, I thought I would do a write up......

1) Check garage fridge for beer (if none you will need to purchase 10 at your local store since JLT did not include any in the kit)
2) Take beer from fridge and open beer
3) Place beer on work bench and open hood of truck
4) Finish beer and open another beer

5) Remove hose

10) Finish beer and open another beer

12) Finish beer and open another beer
13) Remove old hose from cowl
14) Finish beer and open another beer
15) Start truck to ensure no warning lights
16) Finish beer and open another beer
17) Turn off truck
18) Finish beer and open another beer
19) Close hood
20) Finish beer and open another beer
21) Finish off that last beer with a feeling of pride that you were able to accomplish such a technical installation. Additionally, now that you have that beer mentality going on and are in such a celebratory mood, it is a perfect time to chase momma around the house nekkid......

EXCELLENT JOB..!! Can you do one on hooking up fogs to up-fitter switches next...I figure if the little JLT job took you a 12 pack,might want to put a case in fridge for that one...

Anyone have experience in changing the orientation of the hose connections? The way mine came really likes to sit a certain way, but it sits up against one of the mounts for the engine cover. I think it would be less intrusive reversed, but the hose does not fit well that way unless the connector is flipped.

I have my JLT sitting in the garage and will post pics after I install it. Thanks for the write up.

I understand the concept of the catch can, but why in the hell aren't they installed from new to begin with?????
