The diff housings and the transfer box have breathers, the gearbox doesn't (unless you have a European Diesel).

Prise the caps off the breathers and extend them upwards.

One of the propshafts has the only greasing point on the car so push grease through this on a regular basis and keep the radiator spotless as they are quick to overheat if the radiator is blocked in any way. If yours has a radiator cowl fitted make sure it is clean at the bottom rear after wading.
