Axle vent tube

[Mil T]

After todays small river fording i am going to have to get the diff fluid replaced.

Anyone know what type of hose to use to extend the vents? I want to bring them up way higher as the damn creek we cross is turning into a river as of late.

Depending on your routing, HEAT, you can use vacum hose or the clear hose you can get from the hardware store. It doesn't really have to be to thick. If you are replacing the entire hose then some good vent hose works. But if your only extending then use the plastic couplers inside and add some clear PVC tubing.

I was more curious about the diameter needed. (didnt know off the top of my head)

FWIW,

ANY time you ford water over axle depth, the diffs should be checked for water and/or oil changed. This has been true for decades.

Look at your existing hose. I would say 3/8
