There's a detailed write up in.... umm... another forum. Do a google search for "River Raider Offroad", go to Smilin' Bob's breather relocation kit, and click on the link there. It will link you to the whole nine yards. The install is an absolute ass-job. Be prepared to be frustrated and keep small children out of earshot. You'll be cussing like a sailor in no time.

I could only feel for the t-case and tranny breathers. Not being able to see and the hoses being so freaking deep behind the block was no fun at all.

For the tcase.. after half an hour i ended up just getting really frustraded and pulled as hard as i could on it and the entire hose came out (off tcase and off mounting clip)
so i just added the extra hose and then put it back onto the tcase and ran it up to the engine bay

I was looking at the the breather kit and a write up that someone did. How complicated would it be for a jeep newbie? I'm no mechanic but this site has taught me alot!
