Newbie help please

This is probably a complete rookie question but thats what I am so can anyone tell me what the greenish hoses are for on the rear axle of this 1974 FJ40.

 

[toflo]

ok I may have answered my own question but is it a differential breather extension?

 

[sterling]

That would be my guess as well.

a diff breather should just extend upwards, I have never seen two....where do they go?

 

[Fast Eddy]

The one on the right has been added. The brake line junction on that side is not in the original location either.

I was able to find it in the 1971 Chassis manual and it does look to be original to the truck minus the hoses. I don't know where the hoses go because I have not seen the truck yet.

I am assuming this chassis manual covers the 1974 FJ40. I have not been able to find a manual specifically for 74
