Product Description

Enhance the off-road performance of your truck by installing Z1's Rear Differential Breather Kit! This kit is an easy-to-install upgrade that extends the life of your truck's driveline by relocating the vent to a higher position. This keeps contaminants outside of the rear differential where they rightfully belong – in the great outdoors.

WHY DO I NEED IT?

Located on the rear differential of your truck, a breather is installed that allows excess gasses to be vented from the rear differential as it heats and cools during use. This has two major disadvantages on off-road vehicles:

  1. When traversing through water or mud, it is possible for water to enter the differential, mixing with gear oils and causing damage to internal components and seals.
  2. It is very common for dirt and mud to clog the fitting, allowing excess pressure to build inside the differential case. As pressure increases, it damages axle seals resulting in fluid leaks and expensive repairs.

With this complete kit, you can conveniently relocate the breather to a higher position beneath your truck, effectively preventing contaminants from reaching the vent. We've gone the extra mile by providing you with 6ft of reinforced hose, offering ample flexibility to accommodate most standard lift kits. Installation is a breeze with our user-friendly design. The kit comes complete with detailed instructions and all the necessary hardware, eliminating the need for specialized tools or expertise. You'll have your kit installed and ready to roll in no time.

Features:

  • Easy-to-install kit
  • Relocates the vent to a higher position
  • Stainless steel differential fitting doesn't rust
  • Prevents seal damage from excess case pressure

Fits:

  • 1998-2021 Nissan Frontier (D22, D40)
  • 2022+ Nissan Frontier (D41)
  • 1999-2015 Nissan Xterra (WD22, N50)

Also compatible with Nissan Titan rear axles.

Best price for a pre-assembled breather relocation kit. Only downside to this kit is that the breather valve doesn't have a waterproof/breathable membrane inside (I removed the silver cap and it's a straight shot through). If relocating to the tail light then it shouldn't have a problem with dust but I did add an in-line fuel filter for that little bit of extra dust protection and peace of mind. I also added some wire loom to protect the house from rubbing but it's not completely necessary. As is this is a great option overall!

Very easy to install. Came with two extra long, extra strength zip ties to help secure it. The pipe was plenty long to leave slack and reach up to behind my passenger tail light. The installation video was very helpful.

You really need to get your vent above the level of the top of your tires and this does the job.

I recommend everyone with frontiers to get this. Simple install. I took my time figuring out where I want to route it. And how much slack id like. But that is owner preference. Tucked up nicely behind my passenger taillight.

One of the first things I did when I got my new (used) Frontier. My truck only had 30k miles and the OEM fitting was pretty gunked up although it seemed to still operate fine. I’m glad I did this and changed the differential fluid!

Ordered this from Canada and received it quickly. The breather kit came with a link to instructions and it was easy to fit. My stock breather had locked up with all the salt, so this mod was just in time. I recommend ordering one if you have a Second Gen Frontier - regardless if you off road.

More than enough hose to route up to the tail lamp cavity. I routed mine along the brake hoses and wiring harness using zip ties, with slack for movement. Highly recommend for any Frontier owner to save your rear end (literally).

The way the factory would've made it. Unlike another company that uses a inline fuel filter as a the vent lol.. You can't go wrong with the z1 vent kit don't waste your money on that other kit with the fuel filter.

Would definitely recommend, especially if you are still rocking the stock breather. I had built up pressure since the stock had plugged up. The kit went in and on easily and moves the breather to a better location.
