Just thought it was interesting and wanted to share.

I think I would like to build/modify my own can for my JK that way there's no guessing on what may or may not be inside.
The Moroso cans have baffles and a mesh media to collect the oil mist and let it drain to the bottom of the can. They also have a drain valve with a provision for a hose to make clean out easier.

Do you have one installed on your Jeep?

No I had one on my Challenger. I've never heard of anyone finding the need for one on a Pentastar.

I'm going to install one on my 2015 Rubicon. Better safe than sorry in my opinion. I'm going to run a Moroso universal kit. Model #85474.
