it is the mod that takes the crank case ventilation tube out of the intake air line and routes it to just vent out into open air, usually under the truck... keeps that oilly mist from condensing on your intake boots and gives your mule a cleaner intake air charge... gonna do this on myself soon...

[/img]Turn the breather around on the valve cover to point to the rear. Connect 3/4" hose, run it up an over the rear of the master cylinder, down to the frame and to the rear of the truck. The plastic piece that it originally connected to can be replaced with a piece of 4" exhaust pipe or PVC.

im curious what everyone did to plug the hole in the intake tube. Im wanting to do this mod but i cant think of anything to cover the hole well. I've heard of one member filling it with jb weld, but i would hate for that blob to become dislodged and royally screw up the engine. Is there an aftermarket intake system i could buy that dosent have a hole in the intake tube?
