Nope - there's an AN 6 fitting and 1/2" hose venting to a tank in the
wheel well. I am 99% certain this is not a problem. However, over the
winter, I will be rigging this up with real plumbing and real vented catch
tanks, so we'll see how that pans out.
I really think the seals are tearing for some reason, but I can't prove
that without sucessfully taking a stub axle apart. If they are tearing,
then I'd like to address that, if they are not tearing, then I need to
look at solutions like speedisleeves or that sort of thing, or another
differntial housing that is easier to work on and make more dependable.
No, I don't really want to go the Nissan 300 ZX route. At least not yet.
