Differential Breathers?

[Expedition Dave]

Where are they on our model? Has anyone changed/relocated/raised them?

I live in an area prone to flooding and was curious...

On top of the rear diff and transfer case. On my 16 they both sit an additional 3-4” above the very top and I’ve never changed them or ever had issues of water getting that high. If you’re in water high enough to touch the tops of those you deserve to be swept away for stupidity lol

SFG, thank you for the first part of your answer.
I promise I will be OK if I go in the deep end.

Lol you’re welcome, I’ve seen too many idiots trying to make deep water in my short 5 years as a fire fighter and it’s a danger to us and them to have to go rescue them

Maybe I will try over in the Gen 3 zone and see if anyone has done this prior. Also see if they have anything fro the transmission.

You got me curious about the rear diff vent as I am always in and out of the water launching and retrieving the boat. I have the R/L lift and 35” tires. The top of the diff is at 24” from the ground and the ESLD motor sits on top of that. The top of my breather is 32” from the ground. It’s just a hose and cap.
