I'm refurbing the 9" going into my Maverick. I know diddely about 9" Ford Rears (only that they're hell stout).I came across a fitting on the top of the axle housing. I assume it is a vent? What is to vent to? There are two outlets, one steel and one rubber hose. My Q: What am i supposed to do with this? Get a breather for it and go? Other? Thanks, Rick
p.s. Can one attach an image from the C:/Drive to a post? [This message has been edited by RickBook (edited 03-13-2003).]

There should be a rubber line just above the housing in your car. It attaches to it.------------------

This is '70 Maverick that's been off the street for sometime. If the 'rubber line' WAS there, it isn't anymore. What would the line have run to? [This message has been edited by RickBook (edited 03-13-2003).]

There are two lines hanging down. One of course is the rubber line to the rear brake lines, the other is the axle vent tube. It runs from a fitting on the axle tube on the driver's side to a fitting in the frame/subframe.------------------
