    so what you are saying is the two breathers on the inner fender below the master cylinder are for the ADD housing and front diff and NOT the trans / transfer case?

    It would seem so by looking at the pic of the trans / transfer case above!

    I always figured the tcase vented to the trans, the trans then vented to one of the breathers below the master cylinder. Then the front add actuator vented to the diff and the front diff was the second beather by the master cylinder!

    Got mine done and ended up placing it behind the taillight. Easy peesy and no holes to drill.

    I got mine from camelback toyota parts. The hose and clamps from advanced auto.

    If the dealer doesn't have it ready or charges you more than $15 for the breather and union, you can check online :)

    Just check Advance Auto web site - hose $20.49 and not in stock at any stores. Seems like a lot of $$ and they don't have it anyway. How'd you do ?

    That's the price :anonymous:. I should of found a cheaper online source at the same time as I ordered the breather and union but, did not expect it to be so much. I was ready to do it today and didn't want to wait.
    I did check Amazon prior with no luck as the by the ft guys were out except for yellow....didn't want yellow :)

    Quick reply. Thanks. I think I'll look around for something cheaper since I'm not in a rush and they don't have it anyway. Thanks again.

    My 2014 doesn't have this cubby. Can the breather be placed in the cubby closer to the tailgate?

    Later.

    Pull your tail light off and mount it behind there, way easier and a 15 minute job.

    Yep you bet, right now you may get water in your diff if you submerge it completely. Doing this mod eliminates this possibility
