Can anyone tell me if my 1989 Bighorn, 4JB1-T manual, has gearbox and transfer case breathers?
I have had a quick look but couldnt spot anything.

Cheers for that, I will go and have a decent look so I can work out what I have to do to extend them into the engine bay.

Sorry man but a die grinder is one tool I don't have, Iv'e been using a selection of small gringing wheels on the cordless drill, gets me into most places I need to grind that the angle grinder is no good for.

Also as for the going for a play, I am in the middle of my snorkel project and have a couple of 2 1/ 2 inch holes in the guard of mine.
If I tried any fording my truck would fill up quicker than anIrish submarine.
You know the one with the mesh windows so you can feed the fish.
