Haven't used it but now curious. My front 30 always looks milky when I swap fluids. Even the first 15k miles when it never went under h2o!

This might be my next mod.

It seals it completely, so as long as the bellow doesn't get ripped I don't see the need to worry about water anymore.

The only concern I have is, would diff not getting fresh cool air be bad for it?

Diff does not need air at all. The breather just allows air to enter/exit as heat expands the fluid (and metal to some extent). These look like a good idea as long as the have enough capacity so they do not cause a vacuum.

Do you think you could use these on the T-case and Trans also?

I have one of these on my rear axle. Works good and stays put unlike the factory tube and clip. Try an ATV supply for a cheaper one.
