Differential rain cap - gorkyb - 09-10-2014

Hey guys, does someone have a cost effective idea to cover the end of the tube vents coming from the differentials? how many vents are there total in the whole drivetrain? the obvious one everyone can see is coming from the front differential. I want to make sure all these vents are properly vented before I go off-road. I don't want to get water inside the differentials.

its just tube (hose)going up and near the head light level;
the rear axle tube rises behind the left rear tail light.
the stock tubes have anti dust caps.
most cars they are missing. long ago. they fall off easy those caps
then the transmission vent, same deal. collected to 2.

here it is, up front

so it should be fine without the dust caps?

most are. it just to keep out dust or water splashes...
