Has anyone installed the ARB diff breather kit on their JT

[nickd]

The ARB kit had plenty of hose/line in the kit.

On the front diff I just slide the ARB line into the OEM vent hose to run it up to the breather on the firewall........as I did with the rear diff.

I need to post up the pics before I get it stupid nasty next weekend

Are you happy with the ARB diff breather kit? I think I am going to return the kit. The hose line appears very cheap and the only way to make it work is to slide it into the OEM 5/16 tube like you said. Effectively reducing the diameter and increasing the axle pressure.

Also I want to have both axles and the transfer case vent to the same filter and that requires mounting the filter at a 90 degree angle which then means you need 90 degree fittings.

At this point I think I am just going to buy 25 foot of 5/16 hose pull both diffs and the transfer case into the engine bay reuse the breather valve/end caps and fabricate my own mount. All of this will be cheaper than the $90 this ARB kit costs

I'm happy with the kit, its the standard hose or line. I ran my line up on top f the frame with the fuel and brake lines.

I have installed this same kit on numerous other trucks while working in shops.

BUT what the hell ARB and Warn........spent money and no stickers WTF LOL

I know this is an old thread but how did you end up mounting it under the hood? I've got an ARB kit left over from a different project and thinking about putting it on the JT.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sorry, late day yesterday

Here is where it's mounted. I made a bracket and used the existing mounting stud. Been on for about 18 months now

I tucked mine under the driver's side cowl ... fits nicely
