Vented Dipstick System

The vented dipstick system (VDS) was developed for MFWD axle housings. Its design allows the housing to breathe bi-directionally, preventing over-pressurization and vacuum conditions caused by factory sealed units or one-way relief valves made by other manufacturers, including the OEM option. 

Features:

• Provides protection from axle housing pressurization/vacuum, preventing potential hub seal failure, oil leaks, costly repairs and down time. 

• Precision machined aluminum dipstick and fittings replace OEM components

• Extruded dipstick boss allows for tool-less removal or accepts ¾” (19mm) wrench

• Inverted vent offers maximum protection from water, dust and debris

• Filter enclosed in dipstick head provides dust protection even if hose becomes damaged or removed

• Beaded hose adapter allows for quick removal of vent hose for oil changes or level checks 

• Durable and weather resistant thermoplastic rubber hose

• No moving parts

• O-rings, tubing, installation hardware and detailed instructions included 

• Designed and made in USA
