What have you guys found the easiest and most effective way to handle your breather tube after long arms? Mine keeps getting pulled down.

Im guessing plumbing hose?

On the front diff? I used 1/4" hose and just ran it up to the engine bay and zip tied it in a coil since I knew it would get pulled down

Get a longer hose. Fuel line hose will work. They sell it at tractor supply stores.

You could use these diff vent bellows then there is no need for hoses they expand and contract I've had them on front and back for a year now with no issues.
