As I said before they have two versions if you don't like the drain they have it without as well.

The thing with that moroso, there's a longer drain pipe coming off past that valve. Looks to be about 2". When you shut the valve off there's still going to be some residual oil in that line and it'll drip out over time making a mess. Unless that little red cap stays on, but it's another thing to lose or fall off. And you have to make sure there's room below it to fit a container to drain it into, always need a container on hand to drain it in, and it's got rubber hoses running to/from. The JLT eliminates all those small inconveniences.

still have a big ol' bracket and ugly rubber hoses and brass fittings lol

I admit the brass fittings are not attractive. The JLT look like they might be plastic? ether way they can be swapped out. I wold prefer a bracket over having something free floating with no bracket. Its kind of hard to say that the JLT eliminates all those problems you mentioned when its not available for the Raptor.

The JLT ones do look like plastic fittings, which there's absolutely nothing wrong with that when look under the hood, the valve covers are plastic, the intake is plastic, the PCV lines are all plastic, the air box is plastic, the tanks are all plastic LOL. The JLT itself is billet, the fittings are plastic. No reason to swap them out for uglier brass ones either. And when it's light enough, no reason for a bracket, the plastic factory PCV lines are very rigid.

And yes it's not available for the raptor yet, but hopefully it's on it's way.

just sent an email over to them. as long as they can get things done and have my truck back to me by the 15th of feb, i'm game, or they can have it after that, i'll keep this thread updated on what they say.

Any updates?! I did pop the hood and take a look at the passenger side valve cover, unfortunately the PCV on that side is tucked pretty far back so it may end up being tucked back decently far, but really not that big of a deal for just emptying between oil changes.

lol and I hate BRASS, it belongs under the kitchen sink lol. The more OEM looking the better!

But hey that's why there's different vendors out there for everything.
