Differential Axle Breather Replacement for ARB 170112 Kit

Exact duplicate of its way more expensive brother ARB and made of the exact same materials! There is absolutely no reason to buy ARB's breather kit unless you wanna throw away your money... 100% recommend.

I suspect this is in fact the ARB device just without the logo since the parts are identical right down to the packaging. having said that, this is a fantastically put together system. The tubing is a bit stiff and a little difficult to work with as it has a mind of its own but overall, very good product, does exactly what it says it will and as far as installs go, pretty straightforward. self tapping screws could be a teensy bit longer. only a few threads are able to go into the panel.

Works great! Keeps my ARB front diff in my Toyota Tacoma safe and water-free

Now I have both, the ARB version and this one, they are pretty identical. But seems like the ARB was slightly better on threading. The hoses are both useless for both kits. I use a 1/4 hose and adapters for my Tacoma line. This is still solid and good to use. If I had to do it again , I'd just buy two of these and save some money. This took the same amount of time to install as the ARB. Minus one star for needing slightly better threads.

Hose is stiff, but avoids the possible $1-2k repair of differential or axle leak. Bolts can mount to factory threaded holes. Shark bite fittings are snug, but you can silicone the hose if you want to be overly cautious.

Kit fit well in my 4Runner and works fine, tubing was plenty flexible for me. I didn't get around to installing the breather until 7 months after I bought the kit, and then I noticed one of the holes in the aluminum manifold wasn't threaded well. I contacted the seller, and they sent a whole new kit, no problem. That's pretty good customer service.

No clue why anyone would pay double for the ARB kit. Works great. I know some complain about the stiffness of the hose but it's usable. It seems to stiffen up after time so it could crack down the road. I'll update if it cracks or not.

Seems like a similar product to another larger more expensive brands but offers the same function. Install was easy even though there were no directions. Not too complicated to put one end on the rear differential, run the supplied hose up to the front of the truck and screw the filter to the firewall. I would place one bit of caution on this however, the hose connectors are not of high strength steel. I sheared off one of them in the differential when installing and I didn't even put that much torque on the wrench when installing. So be careful and do it slowly. I stopped just as the threads that were painted with the thread locker had disappeared, but not all the way in.
