Hello everyone, just finished installing HL snorkel kit and vent relocation as well. The Highlifter snorkel installed easy, instructions pretty vague but seems like a good product. The kit also included vent relo kit, with vinyl tubing, fittings, etc.. I decided against drilling holes in the roll cage and ran all ports up the pass side rr cage and up to roof on the pass side. I tied the fan vent and front diff into a T and routed to roof and all other ports were routed with an individual line/hose. This took a little longer but those white plastic T's and fittings are so cheap and break so easy, i wanted piece of mind.

I vented ft and rr diffs, gas tank, sub trans, trans box and fan motor. My question- has anyone vented the crankcase vent located on front of engine ????? This one seems SUPER important and has the lowest tube location of all the vents. I haven't seen anyone address this on other posts and nothing in the HL instructions.

BTW- I have an underhood snorkel built from 2" schedule 40 PVC, with rubber sleeve, glued and ready to install a member can have if you pay for postage. Send me a PM in interested..

This tube is on the opposite engine side of water pump and looks to be 1/4 inch vent hose coming out.
