Diff Breathers

No lovely oily smells from it on hot days up there in the rear pillar?

hi KiwiAngler
My breather tube from the gearbox and transfer case go all the way to the engine bay along with the front diff and end with a 180 deg bend downwards and have no filter on the end the rear dif has a breather which goes all the way up top of the wheel arch and with no filter just a 180 deg ben pointing down

Kiwiangler,

Don't waste your money mate. I made one of those out of chewing gum.

Matt.

And I bet you used the recycled stuff at that!! :-) :-)

Gday KiwiAngler, i have fitted those billet race craft kit to my truck Ya can buy the blue breather/silencers and air line and stuff from Site Link

I have a similar set-up to that shown in the photos, but it didn't cost ANYWHERE NEAR $100- !!!!

Just some plastic tubing and push-on fittings from Pirtek etc and a couple of filters. The push-on fittings are about $6- each and the tubing is about $3- per meter. There are options for the filters; don't know about those sexy, bleep -shaped ones, but a small fuel filter etc would suffice.

Damn....got bleeped for saying D-I-L-D-O......Why? That's not a swear word AFAIK......

They bleep you for that yet Pajero remains unbleeped, maybe you need to learn the spanish word for your word since spanish naughty words pass!!!
hahaha

I'm making up a similar setup from bits left over from jobs we've done. The little filters are actually pneumatic exhaust silencers. You can get the stuff from places like SMC, Festo, or any other Pneumatics company (or me). As for the $100 buckeroos, if you buy the fittings and hose at a retail price it will probably cost you $75 - or more unless you're in the industry.

I actually had a set-up on my last Patrol which was similar to the $92- set-up. When I sold it I removed the rear breather and re-installed the OE set-up.

I have since fitted a new rear breather to the Dual Cab Chevvy from Hell, and had (up until today) just termineted the Festo hose in the cargo box with a female 1/8" BSP fitting......Thanks to this post I remembered that I had the little blue d-i-l-d-o filter/knobby thing and it screwed straight on today (once I found the damn thing.

I also found the other rubber hose etc when I found the little blue filter, so I decided to do the front diff today too. Only trouble is, I now don't have a blue filter gizmo......

Hey Louie the Fly....., do you stock these blue filters? If so, how much and could I get 2 off you please? (the one I already have probably needs changing anyway as it was on my last Patrol for about 5 years).....

Cheers

Roachie, we don't stock them as such but I can get them for you. We buy in to order as the range of pneumatics parts is so huge. They only cost a few bucks each from memory but I will need to check. We generally buy SMC Pneumatics as they have a big range and they are reasonably priced compared to the others. From memory they even have a style made from brass that you can rinse out.

I need to order some gear after new year anyway. I'm on holidays until 7th Jan so I will do it when I get back if thats OK. Once I get the info I will send you a message.

How does my previous post appear twice???
