Re: Nice breather location.

oops, I forgot to post the pic of the front diff breather with the cap pryed off. Just use a small flat screwdriver to pry out the indents at the base of the cap, then use some needle nose pliars to pull the cap off. If it is not comming off easily enough, spend more time prying the base out. You don't want to damage or gouge the plastic lip holding the cap in place. You need that lip to be intact because this is what will hold the new tube in place and keep it water tight. Once you have the clamps tightened down, it is all good. I used a little heat shrink tubing on all the connections for some added security. I also stuck little hose clamps on for the hell of it. They are completely not needed. Now I feel really secure with dealing with water crossings.
