Are there any other sources besides the Diffs I need to protect on my rig. TC and tranny should be non issues I'd think.? I'm about to install my ARB kit and it is light on instructions.

OEM lockers also have a breather tube that can be extended. Transfer case has one too.

Thanks. I'll extend the transfer case and since I have no lockers im good there. Where is the hole located on the transfer case?!

Top, rearward, not far from the plugs, IIRC ,
Are you saying they have a breather coming off of the servo motor ?

Yup. It is wrapped into the wiring harness, so a little hard to see until you follow the wires down and find the tube splitting off seperately. It is real small. 1/8 inch?

I would have never know that was there if you and @inkpot hadn't said something. That's actually not that bad of a location but looks easy enough to bump it up onto the firewall. I have an ARB diff breather sitting on the shelf that needs to be installed before we do the high water mark in June.
What do you guys recommend for breathers ? I was going to mount the ARB deal DS firewall and run the front diff and T case to it. Not sure if I should run a line all the way forward for the rear diff or route it somewhere else. Obviously i'm now thinking about doing the locker breathers as well.
I ran my rear diff and actuator into the rear passenger side quarter panel- it was easy just took some effort and thinking. The arb 8mm line fit perfect, and on the rear I reused the oem breather after a cleaning. I plan on running transfer case, tranny, front diff and actuator, and maybe distributor to the ARB once I can figure out a way to mount it high without any drilling into the body
...and I ran mine through the sunroof drain grommet. Took a little finagling, but it went
I was thinking about installing two rivnuts in the firewall up on the DS and attaching the breather to that.

I usually just slip a couple of feet of hose the next size up onto the existing tube and run it up along the extended diff breather line.
