Front Drive Shaft Update

[Commodore]

Breather valves might be causing the pinion seal leaks but they have nothing to do with the driveshaft.

The new part number supposedly for better rubber on the boots if I recall. But, that wont fix it as we know,

I wonder if the "breather valve" is just for the weeping/leaking seals? Categorized under Way-out: Is there anyway that a clogged tube could cause a diff to run slower/bind putting a constant stress on the front shaft? Seems like it would have to be really dragging.

Yes - I was unclear in my post, the checking of breather valves is in regard to the leaking seals.
