Extended front diff breather.....and then this!

[BullElk]

I just replaced hose and extended as far up as I could next to brake fluid reservoir. I had the typical fuel filter on it then took it off. right about same time the DS knuckle begins to leak.

Could there be some correlation there regarding a vacuum or a reason this would be caused by different breather? The new line appears to be clear and not stopped up.

Thanks

That's a helluva blow out. Looks like a lot of pressure to me.

I clean it off good and now gonna see if it continues. With a little suction on breather hose I can tell the line is clear.

try the filter as well, both pressure and vacuum

Time for a seal kit! Doesn't look like a reseal job has been done lately? It will stop leaking when the diff gets low enough!
