Hey guys, I recently had to take off my wheel to replace some studs on my rear drum, and I noticed that there's a hose connected to the top of the rear differential pumpkin. The hose leads up into the chassis just in front of the fuel tank, but I can't for the life of me think what it's there for.

I'm just wondering what it is, because since I've lifted the suspension, the hose comes off when I'm driving.

Any ideas?

Extend the hose or pull it out of the chassis more so you have some slack.

Hopefully you havent driven through high water or mud like this..

Okay, thanks a lot guys.

I was planning on extending it anyway, but I've been trying to find out what it is, and the Hayne's manual I bought when I got the damn car says nothing about anything (Worst 50 dollar book ever).

Have to agree with this from my experience so far.
