Rear diff breather

[raywise]

And also for old members like me who still hasn't checked/done the breather mods

 

[4low]

So what would be a step by step guide to install them and what materials would I need for an 06 model?

3 mtrs fuel hose
Clamps
Valve or does hose go directly on top after the cap is removed?
2 fuel filters
Zip ties

Is that about it?

 

[Dave]

6 metres of hose, a barb (part number is in the D22 section under D22 part numbers) and cable ties.

Will have to get those things together when I get a chance and have a crack at it

When you add a post to a thread that hasnt been active it brings it to the top of the page. Guess it makes people have a look inside or reminds them that the thread is still there

just having a bit of a gander at some of the ready made breather kits available as i need to get mine done before i drive Sydney - Darwin in two weeks. found this one, Diff Breather Kit [140207-1-K] - $35.00 : Locktup 4x4, Hardore Offroad Gear
which seems to work on a kind of bellows system. has anyone tried one like this? would the thread from these ones be the same as my D40?

i only ask coz i'm kind of lazy sometimes and these seem extremely easy to install.

Id rather the way I did it.

But that kit should work.

[ashleylipus]

im not sure about your model but my late 2002 model d22 has front diff t-case and g-box breathers extended to the engine bay from factory and rear breather up to the underside of the tub

 

[Simonness]

Ah ok, il just need to look for the short ones and extend to the engine bay,
all good n thanks.

Simon

 

[Dave]

2006 only needs the rear diff doing.

Dave.

 

[Simonness]

is that so? that makes it heaps easier for me then!

what size, type of tubing do i get tho and is that all i need? do i need some sorta filter at the end of it?

Simon

You just need a hose barb fitment for a pre 06 model (part number is in the part number thread somewhere) and a length of hose.

Buy the barb part that screws into the top of the diff and take it down to the auto shop to get a hose that fits

When I do mine I'll probably tee it into the transfer case (as I run the same LSD diff oil in it). If you don't do this you'll need something on the end. Most people use a small inline fuel filter

Was told somewhere not to tee 2 things together if they run different oils due to the potential for cross contamination

 

[Simonness]

ah that sounds complicated now lol. cant i ust join onto the existing hose?

 

[Dave]

I just ran mine with fuel line up to the brake booster in the engine bay.

[Simonness]

but did u get a whole new line and plug that goes into the axal or did u just extend it with an adpator or something?
