Also, has anyone experienced a vibration in the brake and gas pedals after installing a can?

 

I have no idea why it would have caused anything like that. I ran crc valve cleaner through it prior to putting the can on.

mine vibrated a bit in the gas the morning after I installed it. I have since reflashed the ecu and reset the LTFTs and it has seemed to have gone away.

 

That being said I wish we had a document denoting the check valve orientations so I can check if mine are correct.

Just a quick heads up on the arrow and flow direction of the UPR Check Valves. The UPR Check Valves always flow away from the UPR Catch Can and they are installed on the UPR WOT line and the UPR Clean Side Line. The arrow always faces away from the UPR Catch Can.

I just got the PM this morning. Sorry for the late response.

 

There is a normal amount of rock with the 1.390" UPR Plug n Play™ filler neck fitting due to the valve cover design. I just want to be sure no one received the smaller

earlier GM unit see details below.

 

If you guys can take a quick measurement on the bottom of the UPR Plug n Play™ filler neck fitting and let me know what the size is to make sure you have the correct fitting.

 

The diameter should be 1.390" for the 14+ trucks. If you have the 1.320" that is for the earlier GM I will get it corrected right away.

 

Thank you, Joe

Just checked mine and it's correct. 1.39" and change. Again, all my play is from the plastic tube like I said earlier but just wanted to confirm measurements...it's the engineer in me. Thanks for the info Joe!

Hi Joe,

 

I just received my kit today and wanted to install the kit this weekend but looks like I might have to get the newer filler neck fitting? This measures at 1 5/16" (1.3125"). I have a 2016 Sierra.

Take a full picture of the bottom without the tape in the way so we can see the receiver channels on each side should be different in size on the larger 1.390" unit and the smaller 1.320" unit has the same size receiver channels on each side. If this is the case I will send out the correct part with a call tag for the part you received. BTW, what size shirt do you wear and I will throw one in for you. We have some really cool new American Flag Team UPR shirts we just came out with.

Also I had a question, is there a way to take the can apart? Like I have seen other cans have a bottom half you can unscrew so you can see the oil inside and empty it?

I have updated the design so it never has to be disassembled to be cleaned. The new design can be cleaned very easily by removing the center line on the top and just pour hot water with dish soap in it then drain it then leave the petcock open and simply run one gallon of fresh water through it and it will perform flawlessly. I have been working on the design to be the most efficient and simple to maintain. You don't have to clean it if you prefer not to. But, if you insist then it can be done once a year. The UPR Catch Can internals have been designed to require zero maintenance and last forever. We use Red Loc-Tite on everything to eliminate any assembly issue and be sure it lasts forever.

 

Many people used to take the systems apart and ruin the UPR Plug n Play™ Fittings and O-rings. So designed the system to be sealed and require zero maintenance to last a LIFETIME.

PM me your invoice number and contact info and I'll get you set up right away. Also, let me know what size shirt you wear and I'll include

it with the correct UPR Plug n Play™ Filler Neck fitting. I'm glad you guys got right back to me so I could straighten this out for you.

 

Thanks for the fast response.

Already got the invoice for the new part. Thanks for the great service. I understand things happen and I appreciate the fast response to fix it..

 

I will say the kit is great and super easy to install. The factory connectors really make it look like something that came on the truck to begin with. My only recommendation would be to change the instructions and pictures for installing the CSS.

    • Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose  
    • I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose  
    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
