Rear Axle Housing Vent

Aug 18, 2006 5 Replies

It seems as though this came up recently but I can't find it now. Where is the rear axle vent located on a type 44? The question came up recently and I would just as soon not have to crawl under the car to find it. MikeW


It should be a tiny hole on the driver's side axle tube.. about 11"-12" from the cover... and slightly below center of the tube.

It's under the band around the axle tube, that secures the driver's side brake line. The band has a recess stamped into it that shields the vent hole, and lets it breath most of the way around. Mike M.

Y'know... I never thought of that! But it sure does make sense..
