Axle breather pipes

Defender 110 200 TDI 1990.

Where are the breather pipes meant to go to from each axle, anyone got a map?!

umm anywhere? As your vehicle is over 10 years old i would say i doubt they are in the original position, the idea is that are of a decent height above the axle and out of harms way of any wading you may do, or even muddy laning/off road.

I think my front is up by the top of the steering box and my rear is just under the tub floor.

Have a mooch underneth and see where they go, i can't see there being any reason why they should be in any position as long as they're out of the way of water/crap ingress.

just run them along the chassis and finish them at the top of the bulkhead (or top of snorkle if yu have one).

As above.. but ah replaced me rear axle breather as it only went up to the tub at the back, now it comes right along the chassis and up behind the engine (and it's a genuine one)
