Well done, Giovanni! Looks better than when it rolled off the boat. You must be the neighborhood go-to guy for fixing cars.

Where in Costa Rica are you? And what sort of dog is this?

Thank you very much for the info John. I actually read it last night and got straight to work on it this morning. I actually had to extend bouth rear and front breathers and i think it came out pretty cool, you guys let me know. And once again thank you John i can see the importance and diffence this will make on any trail.

This is the rear diff...


The rear breather comes in to the cabin behins the drivers seat and i mounted it as high as possible and added this ricy filter at the other end but i think it looks pretty cool.



This is the front diff, we tried to keep the line as far away from the muffler as possible.


The front breather comes in to the cabin as well nehin the passanger seat and i mounted it as high as possible too trying to match the other side.



So there you go. Big ups to my dad who helped me out. Let me know what you guys think.

I hope you closed in the factory holes you used to bring the hoses inside the cab:} I'm really jealous of you and your solid axles and diesel engine, other countries are so lucky in that area of vehicles, our truck are designed for the spoiled american market with IFS trucks so they ride like cars. And we wouldn't have to SAS here, Sucks!!!!

Nena is a pretty girl. It looks like she's keeping your truck safe.

Well thats true, but one thing i do miss from the states was the availability of original and aftermarket parts for ANY car if thats the case and not to mention the cost $$$$$ is hella high over here with taxes and shipping we end up paying about twice the original cost.
