Diff Breather
 
The breather nipple has broken off of my diff so I removed the rest of it and now I'm left with a 10mm hole, any ideas where I can get a new one from or what I could do to solve the problem?

Remove the back cover and cut a threat in it using something to catch the swarf. Then get a hose tail from ur local hydraulics place

Mine did the same. I just let the plastic piece in the diff and epoxied a piece of brake pipe into it. Then bent it over to face downwards.

Hope that helps.

Cheers

Dave
