How many people on here running bellows instead of the vent tube extension?

Thinking bellows hooked in the ends of all the stock vent lines and just one line for the fuel tank up into ropes

I used bellows for 700 miles. It worked good for me for everything except for the rear diff. Too much pressure and it pushed the pinion seal out. It was a cheap fix but time consuming.

I still have the bellow on the cable box.

Check out my page for ideas I have 4 separate vents for 6 components.

Ok so I purchased the vent tube kit from Bayouownbeer. After reading the last few post I'm in question on my setup. I ran the gas line separate and tied the rest together. I had an uneasy feeling doing so, but followed the directions or so I thought I did. The kit only came with two filters so this assured me that I did it right. My question is will everything vent properly this way or would I be best to separate some of Them?

Sounds like you bought the same kit I did... I thought it was from @Bayouownbeer too... but it was another guy. It works fine though.. I see no reason to need individual vents.

Only disadvantage would be if you would happen to damage a vent the more components you have tied together to more will be affected.

Wasn't my kit I use 4 vents. I feel better about not haveing so many components on the same vent incase it gets damaged, comes loose. Gets penched what ever.

I was wrong the kit was from another member. Think I'll reconfigure my setup just for more piece of mind. Thanks for the feedback.
Just about done with mine and I did them all separate , uses more tubing but my thoughts where that's safest route and that how the Factory has it also.
