Rear Axle Fluid - Bit-O-Honey???

[etlsport]

the breather tube is super easy to remove/replace/modify

mine kept clogging and building up pressure in the diff. i ended up installing a small breather filter (like some use in place of a PCV) a little higher up than the factory one.

in your case i would probably do a combination of things.. maybe run a longer hose up towards the front and put a filter on it so that nothing can get in to clog the longer hose

good luck with it!

If ya want to get all fancy this is a sweet set up...a bit on the pricey side though.

And here is the much cheeper bellow kit.

Nice! I like the cheaper version. It's kinda like an air reservoir for the axle. That's pretty cool!
Thanks!

It's kinda funny how dramatically different the VX feels after replacing ALL of the fluids. It's like I just uncoupled a heavy trailer! Oh, and it's smoother and quieter than ever!
Interested in seeing what my gas mileage goes to now. I was getting 18-19 Hwy MPG...

What size tires are you running and what pressure? My gas mileage is running better than ever right now at 15 MPG...ugh.
