 |  Subject: Venting Shit like axles...  Mon Sep 05, 2011 10:54 pm | |
| Has anyone done a homemade vent kit? I apparently need to fix mine up as I had water in my front diff and it was under pressure. I know I need to check the seals but I figure I would get it vented first.
What all needs to be vented other than the axles? Anyone change the fittings in the axles or other places?
I will do my homework and pick up all the stuff from McMaster before I pay $60 for a "kit". I have good tubing from work so I just need to figure out the fittings.

| When was the last time you changed out your axle fluids?, to the time you noticed the contamination? If you axle doesnt have a vent then I would just change out your fluids and maybe the seals(if you see a need to). | |

The axle has a vent, it is just clogged. If its clogged then it may be leaking out of the seal. I figure I would get the vent working and change the fluid before I get into changing the seals. I have an aversion to changing seals unless I know it is leaking for sure. | |
