4x4 / Off-Road TechThis section contains all discussion related to taking the FJ Cruiser in Off-Road situations, 4x4 applications and any armor modifications.
Well, got all of my parts. The list sure helped Shadow. I'll be adding my skid plate and this mod when it's cooler on Saturday morning. Proud to wear your sticker on the FJ when I'm done. Thanks again from the Rat family.
Glad to be of help, make sure you post a pic and PM me; in less your coming to Ouray, and I'll hand you one

I loved this mod! Took hardly any time at all, and I'll sleep better knowing my Diff. and locker are a bit safer. I'll be adding the SCUBA Driver logo to my signature shortly.
I had a slightly different experience than you on the price of the Camry fuel line union. Bob Tyler Toyota here in Pensacola had me coughing up $7.55 after sales tax. And the Advance Auto Parts down the street from me had the fuel line at $1.18 a foot. Not TOO far off the mark. The other items were pretty much what you paid.
But that fuel line union price kinda bothers me the more I think about it. I expect prices to differ a bit from place to place. However, this is double the price from the same company. Howzat happen?
Regardless. Love the mod. Great instructions and pics. Well done!

Pic# 11 Pic of the breather/e-locker and the New breather line that goes to the engine bay.
Pic# 12 Tie wrapped the New Breather line to the E-locker bundle. (not sure what it's called) :-P
Pic#13 Pic of the union and the new breather line.
Pic#14 Pic of the installed rear diff breather. (I don't have the bracket yet so I tie wrapped it for now till I can find some tools to make the bracket.)
Shadow thanks for you're help with this rear diff relocation....:-)

Nice job, as far as the union cost, it should be the same, it sounds like that dealer has a HeII of a mark up on parts. You might want to rethink going to that dealer if you ever need any work done, based on the cost of 1 small fitting, this could be an indication of "Bigger" things, IMO. Make sure you post a pic of your breather so I can send you a sticker I'll be sending out the sticker so as I get back from Ouray, thanks for the write up
