i know that breathers get a lot of talk on the forum and i apologize....i found my t-case breather yesterday but couldn't find the ones for the transmission....i assume they are on top so i do i just stick my hand up there and feel around? how many are there?

it does breathe right?

Not sure if there is one on the transmission. I've heard that the automatics use the dipstick tube as the breather, but I can't figure out why a part that operates on fluid pressure needs a pressure relieving device. Can it build up too much pressure? Does it behave differently when the fluid is cold vs. when it's hot? Manual transmissions might be a different story. Anyone got any thoughts on the subject?

I believe that there are 2 breathers on the transmission even autos. I'll double check to make sure that is correct though. In any event, I have 2 new breathers for the tranny sitting in my truck. If it turns out that my automatic doesnt have them, they will be for sale....lol
