Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) vent on the 2500 rear end

[Dick R]

anyone know if their is a vent on the rear dana rear end on the 98 2500 , I looked but didn't see one maybe not knowing what to look for ?

On the top of axial , should be a hose to it , then it is clipped to the frame to keep out of water .

look where the brake tee is the brake lines go to each side and the vent goes up to the frame

thanks , anyone ever have a vent become plugged ? or is that not a problem with these rear ends , the reason I ask is that I have one seal with a leak and I'm looking for an easy fix .

It can happen , disconnect the hose at the axial housing , take the vent cap off , blow air through , then try to blow through vent cap , by mouth , it is spouse to help to keep water out .
