To diff breath or not to diff breath?
To diff breath or not to diff breath?
Hey guys, just wanting your opinion. Do patrols need breathers eg.diffs/transfer/gearbox. My GQ has a 2" body,3" spring lift on 35's and I've been told that it is not worth doing, but when I read in mags and see the breathers on 4wd tv etc, I 'd be thinking differently?

For the $10 its going to cost you and the $$$ it saves why wouldnt you?

Maybe you should read up what the diff breathers actually do, sounds like you have no idea.GLENO'S GQ wrote:Hey guys, just wanting your opinion. Do patrols need breathers eg.diffs/transfer/gearbox.

Hey Gleno....you're aware that your Patrol already HAS diff breathers aren't you???
Rear diff breather goes up into a chassis cross member....recommended to extend that up onto the firewall.
Transfer/gearbox and front diff go up into a T feed and into left front guard.

Thanks guys for your input, looks like I'm extending my breather then no thanx to 351c!

Re: To diff breath or not to diff breath?
yeah that 351c seems like a f**k wit
Re: To diff breath or not to diff breath?
yes I realise I came across a bit harsh
but it seems like such a common sense thing
Like asking if you really need to run a fuel filter

Bear in mind that mines a Safari, but follow a line coming up off the front diff...it intersects with a line coming from the gearbox/transfer case and then goes into the inner front guard between the firewall and vacuum pump / battery.
