Did the diff breather mod using a heavy duty air hose, took a little longer than expected to fit the union fitting and new breather onto the hose but we finally torch heated it and stuck in a metal cone tool to expand the openings. stopped at a hill on the way home to get some flex shots

ncie pics man, that breather extension looks funny, but hey, it works!

Nice pics,now it's time for new tires.

x2 on the new tires!! I like your idea on the breather extension, but aren't you worried it might snag on something? It looks like it droops kinda low

MillerPKA

new tires go on next week. 285/75s most likely going to be bfg at's.

the hose is ran with the other wire flush from gas filler housing to axel. from the third member to the wheel well its protected by the body and axel arms, pretty hard to snag something i think....i hope haha

That's a pretty hard core breather hose! I used about 5 ft (for both front and back) 5/16 vinyl tubing zip tied to whatever the little tube is that follows the filler tube. I like the lift! Looks good.

Not to pop anyones bubble but....I thaught you were not supposed to have any low spots on the breather extension as they can gather diff oil over time and in cold weather can clog up the line and start forcing oil through axle seals and such. It just seems to me there is a lot of potential for oil to gather in the line where all the low spots occur on the coiled hose...I am not trying to diss on your idea I am just trying to help a fellow yotatech dude from having mere problems than needed! It was on here somewhere that I have read about that while researching to do my diff breather mod.

oh by the way...sweet 4runner!

HuskyRunner

I seem to remember something like that too. I think I read it on 4Crawler's site somewhere. Forgot about it till I read your post.

I'm wondering if being that long is a good thing? I know that it is easier to breath thru a short tube than a long one.

OSU4Runner

x2!!!!

MillerPKA

driven on it for the past 12 hours now, no noticable signs of stress or anything, feels perfect, probably will end up switching to fuel hose anyways

yotasavg

looks good to me! i'm worried about the length also...mostly because of snagging, not so much the breathing.

neoworm0

That looks retarded dude.

yotasavg

oh burn........i wouldn't go that far.

neoworm0

I'm sorry but it does. He put it up here for opinions so there's mine. get rid of that curly yellow ☺☺☺☺e and it'll not only look better but work better too.

UNR.Grad

Can't say that I think that length of hose is a good idea. Creative though...

MillerPKA

to each his own. and like i said i'll be switching to brake hose due to efficiency, not cosmetics. thanks for your input though

BajaRunner

looking good, but, if you are planning on driving that in San Diego, you'd better put on the mud flaps. I've gotten hassled so much that next time I'm paying a hefty fine. So right now I got these huge ass ugly flaps back there.

Uh yeah and thats a nice looking rig once again.
