Differental vent hose

I had a lot of noise coming from my drive train finaly checked the vent hose on my front differental as I all of sudden started using gear oil sure enough it was plugged blew it out and my drive train quitied down, and I quit blowing oil all over the bottom of my pickup. just one of those things I never stopped to think of.

If your are running in mud and water, it should be one of the first things you think of, I have a note on the dash of my '91 to remind myself to check those vents, it will save your rear if you check them every time you check your oil.
