Axle Breather Pipe Clip from the axle breather system, retaining the breather hose along its run from the axle case up to its higher mounting point on the chassis.

The breather vents the pressure that builds inside the axle casing as the oil warms up, protecting the hub and pinion seals and preventing water from being drawn into the axle during wading. This clip holds the pipe securely on its routing so it cannot chafe against the suspension links, propshaft or steering components, or be pulled loose off-road.

Used on both the front and rear axle case assemblies.
