P1000 Extended vent lines

[CTDpower]

Any of you guys extend your breather lines to your intake? Seemed like a good spot go me. Just got 4 brass nipples and screwed them into the air filter lid and attached the lines for front diff, rear diff, fuel tank, and sub tranny. Can you think of any reason this would be bad? I liked it cause it seemed to be out of sight but still protected from elements and water...

I dont know - it can get pretty wet in there - LOL

But seriously there is going to be negative pressure in the airbox.

Yeah.. I don't like it.

Agree with @ghost. You really don't want to have negative pressure on those lines when their primary goal is neutralize pressure.

Might not ever be a issue. Just not ideal.
In theory. It could suck into the air box.

I would think that it could suck the oil up in to the line over time and cause problems just my thoughts

Yeah, negative pressure on those might be a problem.

I wouldn't do that.
I have heard of differentials boiling over.
My Dad did it once in this truck (towing a 35' camper up a hill).
Even after he stopped this foamy oil kept comming out for a while.
Cant imagine that stuff getting in the intake.
(Did you know there is a vent on the rear axle?)

Also knew a guy that vented his ATV diff tee'd in to the drum brakes (remember thouse).
Worked great in the mud but he boiled the diff.
Oil whent up the vent to the tee then down the vent to the brakes - as well as comming out the end of the vent.
Rode hack to the truck really slow.
He could slow down by down shifting but could not stop.

It's rare but what a mess when it dose happen.
