    Diff Breather

    I ran my diff breathers along the chassis rail up to the engine bay fire wall...., gearbox / transfer case are still on the todo list



    As others have said the rear diff factory breather is useless and terminates in the chassis cross member. Whilst The front diff and gearbox / transfer case go into he passenger side guard (3 metal tubes) - depending on your type of driving / depth of river crossings they recommend to relocate to the firewall as well

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    I went a cheaper option and also mounted the filters facing down so that no moisture can dribble down the tubes. I have lost a little bit of hieght, but if my rb30 has water that high, it isn't gunna run anyway

    I did similar to mudnut, rubber hose with small fuel filters on the end. Did a loop with the end of my hose, not enough to crimp it, but thinking if I am ever deep enough, hopefully create a bit of an 'air lock' in the hose itself. Time will tell, but so far so good.

    Just an automotive grade rubber. I am thinking of upgrading the rear diff to chassis piece with some tougher stuff.

    I recall reading somewhere that you'll need to make sure it's oil resistant type hose, otherwise down the track the hose may break down
