How do you pick out catch cans?

[@luispadilla2212]

I don't own a Jeep and probably won't for another 4 to 5 years but I love your videos, your charisma and with respect your gutsy attitude. Sitting on the edge of my seat hoping your Step Child doesn't roll over. Thanks for you guys being you.

[@yankeejoe1747]

Much appreciated! You two are tremendously helpful for JL owners wanting to build their jeeps! If there is an issue, you provide solutions, and put our minds at ease! Thank you for your dedication to the Brand!

[@Raydawg]

Michael is helping you guys and your picking on him...... My kind of people. I love you guys

[@supercharged00gtp]

Kevin found the bolt Mike dropped, he did his part! That is super clean, but remember to keep the stock line in case you ever decide to demod or transfer to another vehicle. That lady's face was hilarious!

[@tfrye008]

Buying the black, painting it Punk’n. Hadn’t even thought of this. What a terrific, and cheap, performance tweak! Love it!!

[@jackhook4192]

I am so glad u brought this to everyone's attention. We installed one on ours a year ago .money well spent. Should be on all vehicles period from the factory. Lol

[@Goodsxp]

You guys are great, thanks for sharing another great fix. IMO, Jeep should have addressed the 'burning oil at an incline' issue before that let it out their door.

[@mattsynth]

I agree that should be factory equipment on a Jeep. Such a cheap easy fix to a problem. Great pay it forward at the end, you guys are wonderful Jeep people, keep up the excellent work.

[@johngrodski4158]

You guys always appreciate your fans....a recipe for success!

[@yeeaahhbuddy7006]

It’s like you’ve been fixing or adapting motors for quite a while. I Learned something new this morning. 👍🏼😎

[@krasnaludek298]

Addressing some comments. The lack of a catch-can is not a design flaw or mechanical deficiency from Jeep. The vast majority of Jeep owners are not operating their vehicle the same way as Lite Brite, so this is a textbook upgrade. Upgrades in the same way people do with Toyotas, Fords, Chevys, etc.

[@keepyourdayjob5658]

That was so neat you meeting one of your subscribers or 2 out in the middle of no where. Your both such a neat cute couple - I know that I have said have it before but heck one more time can’t hurt LOL. I used to be a really out going person but that time I rolled my other Willy’s I sustained a brain in jury when my head hit the roof that has left me some what insecure about somethings - PTSD. I live in the Colorado Springs area hopefully I will someday get well enough in my brain to meet you both. Thanks your videos help me more than you both could ever imagine, Cheers

[@jamescole6846]

These keep coming up in my recommended list the last few days so I keep clicking but I'm glad they have cause you guys are great to watch. I am on my 4th jeep so i have watched probably thousands of these over the years but I think yours are the first ones I have actually watched all the way through and listened instead of just getting to the part I need to hear. Brittany you are one of the most captivating, stunning, gorgeous, attractive, beautiful adorable girls I have seen in a long time next to mine of course :) Every guy and his brothers uncles cousins dad has a KZbin video out there on how to do mods but your the one making this channel stand out different because not only are you hot but you can talk the talk when it comes to the tech too and make it funny. Thats awesome. Keep up the good work and keep making videos. my family is from Pueblo so maybe I will see you guys on the trail one of these days.

[@CrucibleArms]

Great product. I found it much easier to take the can off of the mount from the top and then attach just the mount itself to the manifold. I then attached the can to the top of the mount, per the instructions. Of course, I didn't figure that out until fighting with trying to get the screw into the bottom of the mount through the manifold as you guys did. I do realize I now have to surrender my man card for reading the instructions.

y'all had more fun meeting Shannon and Steve than them meeting you, too funny. Great video input for the Jeep.

[@lesszabo5625]

Cool video, nice clean install. You don't need a turbo, go with a supercharger instead. Really nice unit that fits on top of the engine, awesome unit, 6 psi for safe level boost. Keep those videos coming.

[@uprjoeuprproducts1508]

UPR now has a kit for the 2012-2018 JK Jeep Wrangler as well. Part number - 5038-240

[@laxoufr]

First, I enjoy following your adventures with your JLU and seeing some of your modifications and your commentaries. I recently installed a UPR catch can in my 2018 JLU after reading many reviews on catch cans. I also watched your video several times before installing mine. I have a couple of suggestions for others wanting to install one of these on their 3.6l JL. (1) To install the mount to engine, I placed the allen screw on to the allen wrench and then tightened the mount. No issue of dropping screw. (2) The removal of the existing PCV tubing should be done with care, ensuring that all the clips on passenger side are unclipped. Wiggling the hose out will ensure that nothing else get ripped out because there are a couple of hoses tucked in that same area. (3) The placement of the clean hose takes a little work. Keep up the reviews and videos.

[@tunesoulsata9251]

Another fantastic video! Very sweet of y'all giving them the sunshade! Keep those great videos coming my friends!!!

[@patriotairllc3085]

I really loved this video with the interaction with your subscribers it was nice of you guys to take a minute to meet them.

[@k4391]

I’m really waiting to see how much oil it catches. It will be interesting if you do a follow up on this to show how much oil is going threw the system.

[@claudeperrault4164]

Great video guys (as usual)! Will you do a follow up video and show us what contaminants have been removed by the catch can? That would be nice! Thank you!

[@robertmarez3195]

Awesome install video...always an adventure when you guys install products, good times . Kevin being Kevin for the whole video....lol...good ending Kevin 💪😀......that was so kool with the ending subscribers, good way of meeting. You 2 are simply wonderful. Safe travels

[@jameskey7290]

Very cool. Don't know if I'll ever need this not quite as extreme as you guys, but never say never. Least I know it's out there now. Thanks.

[@moabwheeling]

Turbo and 40s next. Right Kevin ? Great install video , I run a catch on my TJ and it helps a lot . Where's my little buddy Jelly , she needs to be in the video's too !!! That giveaway to that couple was awesome !!! You guys rock !!! Take care !!!

[@LiteBrite]

moab wheeling She was in the backyard playing during this video. 😅😅

[@placebo267]

I have a UPR dual valve catch catch on my eco boost mustang. I love it. You guys should install a mini ball valve so that it’s easier to drain.

[@placebo267]

Nevermind, it doesn’t seem like you can since you can screw the bottom off.

[@ww2069]

Yes Jeep needs to add that part stock or at least as a order fat. add on!!! Love it!!!

[@olafjackel6173]

Nice Vid again!! Welcome Michael (a little late, I know), you're fitting in that crew perfectly!! Cool triumvirate now!!

[@tumbleweedking5668]

Looks like you can take the spacer off the catch can and start it on the upside down bolt first spinning it by hand while holding the bottom bolt and then put the can on saving all the 1/4 turns? Nice job. No Jelly? Only came for puppy!

[@charles_wipman]

I would have lost that bolt too; very nice couple there at the end.

[@countrypplz]

Congrats to the nice people who didn't recognize kev's beautiful face but still won the spider shade! poor kev, this is exactly why i mention in every comment that he needs a special episode all for himself! #Kev-isode!

[@Bob_at_OZDiggzguitars]

HEY NOW! Kevin fished out that bolt mighty fast, GF! Be nice to him! ;)

[@chriswoo4069]

You guys make great videos, Kevin’s comic relief in the back ground keeps everything light and loose. Keep up the good work and we’ll keep watching.

[@SkylerLVN]

I had a catch can on my Hellcat - best thing ever

[@fredbrackely]

You guys seems to spend a lot of time at 45 degrees+, so it might be worth while investigating a different type of sump pan, so you reduce any oil feed issues and increase capacity.

[@damit505]

Catch cans are common in Australia for Diesels not so much for petrol

[@idratherberiding3456]

Nice spontaneous meet and give away! You guys rock!!!

[@jeffrypresutti3139]

So cool doing a giveaway right on the highway.

[@wildwoody20]

So instead in burning oil out of the smoke you're going to catch the oil and hold it in a container and it's chicken 3000 miles I like the fact that the oil is burned out and gone but the downside is it smokes as it does it correct? Also where did you buy this and what does it retail for ?

[@MrClay57]

Is it a Jeep thing to wave at another Jeep when passing each other on the road? We do in Ohio..Catch myself still waving when in my car..haha

[@ductpad]

I do the same thing when I'm in my wifes car and she's driving. She laughs at me...

[@feaudetailing]

same as motorcycle guys. I never had random people waving at me in my silvarado. lol. But if i'm in my jeep its non stop.

[@witchywoman3657]

I discovered this after getting my jeep in November I think it's so cool

[@witchywoman3657]

They dont do it so much here in the NYC area but I love when it happens

[@ASMRchildrensbookreading]

We do it in Australia. Its a Jeep thing.

[@hotsauce3700]

How does installing a catch can prevent oil starvation? It does not.

Gotta love it, rewardin the jeep wave!!

[@bilymac2321]

Good video, great ending. You made their day.

[@danielmelton5573]

Dont know why this episode just popped up as current but I mind as well comment..I had one of these catch cans and the fitting on passenger side leaked and took out my 02sensor. I have since took it off and went to the Mishimoto version with no issues.

[@LivingTheDreamUSA]

Does the 392 engine have this same smoke issue? Or not a problem with V8s?

[@dcsoccerplaya]

You guys are awesome! That was so cool to give Steven and Shannon a free Spiderweb Shade. I paid $200 for mine. :( LOL. Definitely gonna install the catch can though. Can't wait to meet you guys on the east coast!

[@StormbornJKU]

It’s good to see Kevin in the videos much more than he used to be. Keep that up! Quick question for you guys. I understand its cold there now and all, but how come up never remove your doors and hardtop? Have always seen them both on for every single video. Just wondering.

[@LiteBrite]

Alex Winters It’s usually either a matter of temperature, dust, or having no where to leave the doors or top (if it’s a straight through trail and if we’re traveling).

[@brisonpalmer6730]

I don't own an JL but that's a cool install.

[@brisonpalmer6730]

Cool so they make a version for my I6 4.0 Jeep LJ???

[@pay741]

Question does the catch by chance have a bigger cup by chance. Just wondering

[@zanehopefz6hundred761]

I hope because of all the times you’ve been burning smoke. I hope you have changed your spark plugs a couple times?

[@adriant815]

You two are goals for real I wish you two the best🙌🏽💕

[@patrickjamesmcb]

I definitely want to do this upgrade on my JK... Looking forward to seeing this in action and no more smoke! I am sure you will make that video happen. haha

[@richardmiller4442]

I noticed the smoking watching that one video. Interesting. They should move the connection on the valve cover to the cdnter. But that is a great idea with the catch can.

[@gs-nt6nf]

Richard Miller maybe an after market cover with connection in the center will come out. That would be nicer. The catch can sticks out too much.

[@Spence_622]

You would think Jeep would address these issue I guess not lol another great video guys !

[@Infan31970]

Good fix , now what about jy motors in-line 6 ?

[@sithinstructor]

Cool that you guys are wheeling with Brenden Fraiser.

[@mstngken]

I see that catch can breaking that mounting ear off the intake from the vibrations and other off and on road impacts.

Hi guys What brand was the steering assist you installed? Did it fix the sloppy steering at 60 plus on the new JL?

[@picaso340]

Great video. Any downsides to a catch can?

[@madandinzane]

Super cool! Congrats Steven and Shannon!

[@coreysaxe3902]

Do you guys change your own oil or have a shop do it? The reason I ask is because they changed the 3.6 in the JL to hold 5 quarts. The JK 3.6 holds 6 quarts. I have taken my JK over some pretty extreme stuff like you guys and never had any smoke, but I change my own oil and have never had an issue. Just wondering if you got overfilled?

[@mattbrew11]

so what is the oil that you guys run and have you done a used oil analysis on it?

[@ciapek11111]

how catch can will help with dry oil pump?

[@Traulus83]

I have choosed the Mann Provent 200 wich I think is the best catch can in the world

[@jklpino]

What do you do when your doing down a steep decline and all your oil goes to the front of the oil pan and your oil pick up can’t get any oil?

[@laryplessinger5581]

Thanks for the upload. Ill be ordering one today

[@believerscc]

After watching a bunch of your mods, it almost seems like half of them should already be in the Rubicon package. I'm with Kevin, catch can should be stock. Also, have you thought about getting a gimbal for your phone camera? One of my friends has one for the videos he does on his phone. pretty smooth. Great videos!!!!

[@LiteBrite]

Brandon Castle We have a gimbal, I just don’t use it often cause I’m not used to it. 😅😅 Gonna try to get some practice on the upcoming trip

[@MegaModelMan]

Gimbal will make your videos silky smooth. I hope you use it in the future!

[@digibath89]

I just smoked my 17 JK this last weekend on a gnarly incline, a man made MOAB Hot Tub just to paint you a picture. I was yelled at to turn off my engine and my dumbass put it in park and e-brake before turning it off (out of habit) 🤦🏽‍♂️ Needless to say I couldn’t turn the Jeep back on nor put the transmission or transfer case into neutral to roll back and I was about to tip on my side and flip backwards 😰 I’m avoiding “Hot Tubs” at all costs now, also my JK hasn’t been idling right since, something about a 6 cylinder miss fire 🙄

[@Shoot2KillU]

Do they make a catch can for the JKs?

[@Vodafone16v]

Need to research this catchcan thing for my JK...

[@theslimeylimey]

If Jeep vented the valve cover through the middle of the valve cover instead of the rear end, intake oil probably wouldn't even be an issue. It seems like a weird place to vent from but there must be a logical reason for it.

[@bsmukler]

I doubt there is a clear answer to this, but I wonder if oil starvation is an issue when the Jeep is at an extreme angle for a protracted period of time. (If so, that my also explain the knocking you heard.) I know there are baffled oil pans and baffle inserts for OEM pans, mostly for drag racing. I imagine the Jeep engineers have tested for vertical starvation, but would probably not comment on it (due to engine life and warranty concerns). One thing you might consider, where possible, is to roll back closer to horizontal while you figure out how to clear the obstacle. I realize that is not always an option. I would also consider installing one of the non-vented batteries.

[@jeffro8373]

you guys are the best!!

[@mechastomper2023]

why didn't you get the UPR catch can with the drain on the bottom?

[@nate8271]

Will you guys post a video of the results you get from the catch can after 3000 miles or a wheelin trip? Curious to see what it collects.

[@LiteBrite]

you guys are awesome you know that right?! LOL!!!!

[@williambotch1381]

How many miles does the Jeep have now? Any issues besides trail damage?

[@rcguymike]

This technically isn't really a fix is it? More like a bandaid? Ideally you want to keep or return the oil to the sump rather than burn it off or catch it in a can to throw out? Love your wheelin vids!
