    Hi. My truck was pre-owned. The previous owner did the "diff breather mod" and I don't like the way they did it. I also do not need it given what I do with the vehicle, so I'd like to remove the mod and put the OEM diff breather part back. Anyone know the part number or know how I can figure it out? I've tried some of the Google with no success.

    ^It's Toyota P/N 9093003031, interchanges with Dorman 924-262. Install with teflon tape.

    Thanks - it's impressive you knew that off the top of your head!

    The parts sites are all over the place on what models are supported (including Dorman).

    ^Ha! I just looked on PartSouq. The part effectively hasn't changed since at least 2003 (probably earlier), still using a legacy British pipe thread standard.

    That's a wild site - thanks for introducing it to me.

    Any clue why they list each model twice? AFAICT, one is LH steering and one is RH steering, but there are two of each ...

    OK I got around to getting the part. The new number is: 90930-A3001.

    Anyone have any ideas about how much to torque when tightening?

    If there is a torque setting, it's going to be in inch lbs. Tight is good enough.
