Re: 6-th 8th Feb

Nice work man, Quick question Where did you run your diff breather too? Cheers, the rear one comes up between cab and tray(hilux DC ute) and sits just under tie down return for tray. The front one comes up under steering column and is tied off on the vacuum lines for the brake booster. IMG212.jpg
