Rear Diff breather precaution-4th gen

There has been suggestion to extend the breather up to the fuel fill. Just a warning that if you do this, go all the way thru so it sticks out visible when you open your gas fill lid.

It doesn't work if you locate it anywhere under that point. Water, debris and muck will splash back from the rear tire to the breather. This is for the 4th gen. I don't know about the previous gens or tacos.

Either leave it stock, extend all the way through or find another location.
