Triton diff breathers

I got my triton at the end of June, I have found where the rear diff breather goes to (tuve that runs between top of wheel wells) but I can't see where the front one is, it's a bit cramped in there.

does anyone know where the front one goes to?

also, do they have any sort of filter on the end or is the tube open?


thanks
Nathan

Front breather doesn't go anywhere... Has a cap with a seal which acts as a one-way valve, pressure increases and the cap slips up and bleeds it off, pressure decreases rapidly and the cap is pulled down by vacuum and seals it off... Have done many river crossings in mine and never has an issue with water ingress to the front diff. Getting the carrier plate off to mod it is a bitch too... Suggest removing the steering linkage before you start.
