Default Front Diff vent tube leak fix...

I had a drip on my front diff vent tube... I used a lawnmower inline fuel filter to give the fluid a space to expand into and then drain back into the diff instead of simply dripping out of the end of the tube... we'll see if this proves to be a long term fix...

pics attached...

I will update after a week or so...
