Ok, I keep seeing people talk and ask about where the axle breathers are and how high up they are on our JK's. so i figured i'd take a few photo's so everyone would know once and for all.

the front tube goes up the drivers side shock mount:
in this photo, its the dark dirty hose coming up the side-


this is the tip:


thats the front breather, the rear is located on the passenger side, above the wheel:
its the tube coming up from the frame, it clips on where that plastic tab is-


this is the tip-



and thats where the rear is located. hope this helps anyone that was wondering where they were.


i forgot to take a picture of the trainsmission breather, someone else can post a pic, or i will tomorrow when i get the chance.

 

Thanks for the info!!!

 

Good Job

next time I can just refer them to your thread lol

 

This makes me think of extending them up farther, maybe even inside.

 

How about pics of the tcase and trans breathers? I still haven't been able to find them... :-)

js.

 

x2. I couldn't find them either.

Thats not a bad idea about locating them further up inside the cab.

 

That's great info. Thanks. Now, all of you who have trouble with warranty can point these out and tell the dealer if Jeep had not intended for the vehicles to be offroad, they wouldn't have put the axle vents so high up.

 

I think this is going to be a weekend project for me. For some new longer rubber hose this is probably what, a $10 mod?

 

What size hose would you use for the breathers?

 

Has anyone ever told you, you have the hands of a Cheetah with a cub in its jowls ?
