I’m super jealous that you were able to get yours out for a drive.Drove it! first time in about 5 weeks due to winter but a nice near 50 sunny day meant I could venture out
can’t wait till spring![]()
.I’m super jealous that you were able to get yours out for a drive.
I checked the mouse traps and caught another one.
Yesterday they said that the woodchuck didn’t see it’s shadow so spring is just around the corner, but I ain’t holding my breath….![]()
I did not install one. But your theory might have some merit.Put the passenger side catch can in. That OEM plastic push pin was a bitch to get out.
For the driver's side: I've read that it's not necessary for street driven cars, but if you do find oil in it, that's bad news. So doesn't that mean we *should* install them, to know if something is not right?
Pull the hose and check for oil residue inside the hose. If it's dry, you don't need a catch-can on the clean air side (the driver's side). That hose's function is to flow fresh air from before the throttle body on the intake tube into the crankcase to purge out the dirty crankcase vapors on the passenger side where normally a catch-can is installed between the engine and intake manifold.For the driver's side: I've read that it's not necessary for street driven cars, but if you do find oil in it, that's bad news.

Where is that shift knob from, looks good.Got around to installing some parts over the last little bit, with the most recent being the shift knob. Learned that it was installed with red locktite.
Resonator delete, Steeda subframe support braces, jacking rails, and G-trac brace in along with some Ford Performance swaybars (Facebook Marketplace find). Emptied out the gravel collector in the rear diffuser from prior owner as well.

Super easy, just have a tool for the clips and its a few minutes. Probably takes longer to get the rear end up in the air. I'll be pulling it off in a few weeks again to get the AR BiRDS V2 installed.Couple of questions if you don't mind..
What is the purpose of the steeda braces, more stability on track?
How difficult was it to remove that rear diffuser and clean out. It's on my list for this winter yet....
Thanks..
