Breather Kit / Electronic Solenoid shift Transfer Box ??? was created by X8GGY

Anyone out there got an electronic / solenoid / button shift transfer box, with a breather kit on it?

I just had this photo sent by an eBay customer -

Which shows a "rubber hose" installation of a breather kit... but there's a T-piece and another hose going off to a breather on what I presume is the solenoid / actuator on a push button transfer box?...

Any experience folks?

Yes Dave, as Jack says, just done it.

Top breather for the transfer case used a 1/8th BSP 90 push fit to a push fit T. The T goes to the shift actuator and the manifold...

I'd get a picture but it's very wet, will do it in the morning if needed....

I should have seen this post before but I was busy in the garage. I was still under my car an hour ago...
Push fit breather kit is installed to my button operated transfer box.

Only difference to Sniper's setup is that I did leave the tiny breater pipe (actuator) as it came from the facory, and only connected the top breather with push fit system.

Thanks guys!

He's bought the kit, plus an add-on for the transfer box, and two gearbox add-ons, so as Sniper indicates, he's going to use a T-piece and a short section of tube to go to the actuator breather like in the rubber hose photo above...

I'll ask him if he'll take a photo of it when it's fitted...
