Do you (will you) make a 5 breather manifold for a 6X6?

Or even a 3 and a 2 breather manifold. One for the engine bay (front/g-box) one for the rear (middle/rear/transfer)? Oops you do make those already

(someone has a proof reading problem on their website)

Mate I will make anything..almost..

Not sure how much firewall space you have but could either do a straight 5 or more of a block version with say a row of 3 and then a row of 2, or you could use a 2 and a 3 as you have seen.

Happy for any feedback on errors on the site. Much appreciated.

Cheers

Hi Nugget.

Seeing you have the duo and triple manifolds, it may be easier to have the triple in the engine bay for the front diff and gearbox/transfer and then have a duo on the rear of the body for the two rear diffs. Or some mix and match of that. Or I could have two 3 way manifolds including the tank.

Have you considered a splash cover for the filters? It could merely be a piece of aluminium angle over the top and front with the ends open that would prevent mud splashing on top of the mesh.

Thanks for the suggestion. I ran one in my 110 for 3 years in all sorts of conditions and never had a problem.

Extreme mud might clog them but the beauty of the sintered stainless is that they can be cleaned. I did a LOT of dirty road/desert work and they held up really well. If I wasn't going to a 4 port, I could have put it straight on the 130 to be honest.

cheers

I like the idea, as I have been wondering what I was going to do, I won't get them just yet as I'll have to measure up the lengths and the D6X6 is after the current SIIB R380 project.

No Probs. Let me know when you are ready and we can make sure there is adequate tube etc for the 6 X 6.

Cheers

On that set-up just use a Y piece up the back and join the 2 diffs, then run a single line up the front...

But don't you run the risk of oil siphoning from one to the other (yes I understand you'd have some serious articulation happening with rapid cooling in a river etc. but would still rather run individual lines.)

Also not convinced that twelve foot long breather tubes with humps and hollows are a good idea.
