Transfer Case Breather

During some research on the extension of the rear differential breather, I came across alot of questions on a (possible) transfer case breather (without extension), but could not find any answers.

This afternoon I made some effort and found the breather, which looks the same as the one on the rear diff (also not extended); see picture.
Anybody experience with extending this breather? how long should the hose be to run it upto the engine compartment (next to the front diff extension)?

During my search I encountered a small hose that was worn and needs replacement (ductaped a for now). According to the repair manual it is a so-called breather hose that runs between the transmission side and transfer side. Anybody a recommendation what material to use for replacement? (size, length)?
What is the function of this breather hose?

Thanks in advance,

Sieb

Transfer case breather update

As it seems the hose functions as a breather for the transmission side through the transfer breather.

The hose was torn and I found the hose of kind of an inferieur material, if you think it needs to function as a breather and keep water and dirt out of the transmission and transfer case. It does not have a clamps, but just sits on the two nipples.

I replaced it with a much thicker and stronger hose and used clamps to secure. I think it is worthwhile checking.

See attached pictures.

I am still wondering if anybody has extended this transfer breather?


Thanks,

Sieb

I think FJ owner did an amazing and clean job. I like the idea of using a two way breather and putting it where it won't get wet.

I have bookmarked that writeup, thanks for the link.
