Roger K Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 Just popped the back off my diff to drill for a drain plug. Whilst I have it off, is it worth converting to a more sophisticated breather design? Any recommendations? Thanks, Roger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted December 20, 2020 Report Share Posted December 20, 2020 The Tr7 uses a plastic breather valve that sits up like a little chimney, and screws into a threaded aperture on top of the diff, but the original split-pin system should be fine as long as it's clean and free to move about.

It seals the hole pretty effectively, and opens when required. Just a good clean up will be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
