If you've got a manual JAG, then you've only got the transfer case breather to worry about as the manual breathes through the shifter opening. The auto has a short breather off of the passenger side of the tranny.

Thanks for that.
Yea i was told yesterday about that.
Will check them out on the weekend.
Have you extended all of yours?
I spoke with ARB, Dandenong and he came out and showed me where my
diff breathers were. He was very helpfull but never mentioned the other two.

Derick You'll get Oil Smells too Especially if your using Synthetic Oil, has a strong Odor compaired to Mineral Oil.

I just fitted my Rear Diff Breather complete with Ryco Fuel Filter right up the Top inside the Rear Right Tail Light Quarter Panel Cavity, no need to bring it up through that grommet. (you will notice the Ryco Filter i chose has a Right Angle Hose Barb fitting at one end which is at the top i.e. the open end)

Thanks for your advise.
I intended in buying a filter, but the only one they had was $19.00 and i thought that was too expensive.
Will look around for the Ryco.
I notice that you had your compressor in there as well.
Are you worried about water?

Not really, the only signs of water in there is right down the bottom where that foam pad sits, the top hight is about where it would sit if i put it under the bonnet anyhow, its very clean and cool in there too as opposed to the egine bay.

Also the Inlet Filter on the compressor that you can see in the pic i am going to relocate straight up into the back cago area, that way it wont have any chance of water or mud getting into it and it wont be pumping hot air while in use reducing its efficiency (obviously it will get a little heat in there after pumping up 4 x 35" tyres!) also it puts the filter in an easilly accessible spot for cleaning or replacment.
