Anybody know of a source for rear axle vent upgrade for my 720?


Recommended Posts

Mine (1986 2wd base model 720 with manual tranny) has the HF37 (H900 axle). I am just repairing the results of the stock vent clogging which resulted in my axle seals being blown out. I cleaned the vent and reinstalled it but I don't trust it anymore. Anyone had any success with finding a nipple that will fit the axle (so I can add a hose and filter)?

I had that happen on my 2012 frontier...

It threw a bunch of codes ...

I started by checking the oil and a huge rush of air came out the fill port when I opened it.... 

I was able to use a regular npt fitting and did what you are trying to do...

 

Is the 720 vent threaded of just press in?

They appear to screw in... used on the B-210 and it shows threads.. The 2wd have a cover over the top but the 4x4 are a nipple with hose so you can submerge the axle.

It is threaded.

I just pried the cap off, clamped a hose on nipple with a filter at other end, tied it up against bed bottom.

Thanks! I might try that...
