[QUOTE="Gilaguy23, post: 436124, member: 19498"] It's just a piece of rubber hose slipped over a barb fitting on the axle end. Yank it off, take a piece of wire or? and poke into the axle to make sure it's not plugged in the barb or tube. The end can be that hard to find and when you do pull the thing out and blow thru it to make sure it's not plugged and the cap on the upper end can move. After 30 ++ years things get gunked up. Keep in mind the trans,T case and front diff also have breather hoses with once the same vent valve on the end. Lots of guys run new longer lines up into the interior or high up under the hood if they plan on any deep water crossings. Don't over think the thing tear into it and learn. [/QUOTE]
