Frequently asked questions

What does the FRC9430 breather tube do on the LT230 transfer box?
The FRC9430 breather tube vents internal pressure from the LT230 transfer box, letting the casing breathe as the oil heats and cools. It connects to the breather valve on the transfer box casing and routes venting up to a safe point in the engine bay, helping keep water and dirt out.
Where does this breather tube fit on the vehicle?
The breather tube sits on the LT230 transfer box, fitted to Defender, Discovery 1, Discovery 2, Range Rover Classic and Range Rover P38. One end connects to the breather valve on the transfer case; the other typically routes upward so the vent outlet stays clear of water during wading.
Why would the LT230 breather tube need replacing?
LT230 breather tubes typically harden, split or block as they age with engine bay heat. A blocked or cracked tube can let pressure build in the transfer box or allow water and grit past the breather, risking oil contamination. Replacing a perished tube restores proper venting.
