Great vid mate! Very informative, if you could balance the audio so the speaking is the same as the music that’d be awesome. But great content ill be fitting mine this weekend so its helped a lot!
Thanks for the video. Do you remember what size hose you had to use on the transfer case spigot? I know you did yours over a year ago now so no worries if you've forgotten! All still going hard with the diff breather btw? I just got an ARB one and will have a crack at it over the weekend
Sorry to bring this back, but how did you manage to install a breather hose on the transmission? I've been told its nearly impossible to reach without dropping the tranny all together. Please help.
Good video. I need to try this for transfer case. Spent a good 35 mins trying to get hose on. But think will need right angle adapter. Do you remember size of pieces used? Cheers
Great video! Quick question, in total you only needed 3 breathers out of the 6, right? One for the gear box, 1 for the transfer, and 1 for the differential. Am I right?
It’s hard to know for sure, but I’ve been in water over 500mm deep multiple times now with no issues. The air intake would be the next point which would be remedied with a snorkel. There are still point where water can get in but these mods go a long way to keeping the water at bay
Did you get most of this at Bunnings? Bought a diff kit off eBay, but didn't realise the breathing spigot wasn't thread. I've got some left over 13mm irrigation hose, just need to step it down to the 8mm kit
Hi great video, most seem to miss the gearbox and transfer case. So why did you not just tap the diff breathers and fit the adaptors straight in? was it just easier for you to use the larger hose like we all did years ago.
I didn’t like the idea of tapping because I didn’t want to risk having swarf from the tap fall into the diff. I know some people use grease to mitigate this.
@@BillyGoatJim Thanks, I can understand that. The first time I had to tap a Cylinder Head after a customer had damaged the Spark Plug threads was scary, but I had forgotten about that over the years.
Great video! What is the advantage of that compared with having a snorkel (or you should have both perhaps)? Thanks! (my new Jimny 2021 is coming in January! Can't wait, mate!)
You need both, the snorkel is for getting air into the engine for combustion, these are for air chnages in gear box and diff.. The problem is when your hot diff and gear box go's though water.. it cools them down, causing air to be sucked back into the case.. but if you're in water.. it'll cause water to get into the diff and gearbox..
Have you had any long term issues with the hose clamp onto the transfer case breather port? Like it coming loose? I noticed there is only about 5mm protrusion on that port.
Hey mate great video thank you for the complete explanation! 1 question tho. I've seen other jimny models have 2 transfer case breathers but I saw for this one you only extended 1 breather so gen 4 only has 1 transfer case breather?
Yeah I think the places where I saw 2 breathers are for older jimnys(I'll double check tho as you suggested). I'm getting a 4th gen jimny next week and definetly going to do this to it so this video is super useful for guidance thank you!
The diff breathers is a great idea, but what do you think of the air intake near the air filter, you might get deep water in there. I havent seen any snorkels on the new jimny yet. cheers
In regards to water ingress, gearbox and transfer case breather are very important, following that a snorkel will be the next modification. That should have you sorted for the majority of cases.
Dear music is very loud and your audio is low. When we listen you audio on high volume suddenly your music blasts the ear. Do check by yourself. Speak openly not murmuring sound. Thanks
