While some of you are here chatting, I’m looking for suggestions for raised vent/breather locations for the axles, transmission and t-case.
I’ve searched several of the modified rig threads and have only seen the one pic Scrappy posted of a breather mounted on the left inside fender.
Ran some hoses for the transmission and t-case to the front of the firewall for possibly locating a little breather manifold for those and the front axle, but nothing is set in stone. Still haven’t made any decisions for the rear axle.
Any suggestions?

I know Bob's suggestion -

How bout rear passenger behind cargo panel

 

[PabloCruise]

I’m not in love with the idea of running another tube or hose along the frame to the front, but I guess you could ‘T’ into the line from the front diff and then have a single line for both diffs run up to the firewall. Definitely not in love with the idea of 90w smell in the cab either.
Kinda sounds like a game of “Would you rather?”

What about running the vent up to the shock mount crossmember?

 

[PabloCruise]

At one point in my life I would bathe in it on a weekly basis. Never fresh new clean 90w from an enthusiasts vehicle, no.

It was always burnt up 90w in a half ton Chevy pickup with 9000lbs of contractors tools and dried concrete stuck in the bed and a grenaded track-loc dif...

I have a special hatred for theat particular aroma. Carry on.

Interestingly enough, the likes it when I come in from the garage smelling like 90W

Got it sorted. I’ll post some pics before long of how this has panned out.

Almost brother.
Two more PITA jobs to do and an ECM flash, then it will be ‘go-time’.
