As far as I know, all the running gear (both diffs, the t-case and the
tranny) all have vent tubes. The front axle vent tube is up in the
engine compartment, and I think the rear axle one is under the bed. As
for the rest, I can't find them in my FSM; there's no entry for "Vent
tubes" or anything in the index.
