hiya guys, im looking into putting extended breathers on my truck.

im looking around and and doing some reading but cant find any pics. from what i gather they are little black pipes on the axles/gearbox ???????

im not sure if im correct tho as im looking in ebay at these kits and they all seem a little bit pricey !! surely if im right u can just wack some rubber tube over the others, make sure there sealed tight and direct them into my snorkel ????

or av i got this all wrong and missing loads stuff

. any advice would be great. thanks guys.

You've got it in one.. The breathers are in the engine bay attached to the bulkhead. 8mm straight pushfit connectors will fit straight on. & you can get connectors & pipe from any plumbers merchants.

thanks for the quick reply mate. off to work tuesday as i can get literally 1000s of meter of thin tubeing that i think will work fine, and if it does work and do the job, maybe sell em on ebay ALOT cheeper than the ones currently on. i dont see how a little tubeing can be so expensive !!
thanks again.

i think the kits go straight to the diffs etc and the feedback I've seen on here is that when you try and extend the tubes it's nigh on impossible to get a good seal.. no idea why
