Wading kit for Land Rover Defender and Discovery 2 TD5

Defender TD4 Wading Kit

The Wading Kit for the Land Rover Defender TD4 is possibly one of the most important, but least considered, improvements you could give your Land Rover.

Wading kit Defender a must-have product for off-road application.

If a snorkel is high on your list of must-haves, a wading kit for axle & transmission bleeding should definitely be one of them. The likelihood of water being deep enough to be sucked in by the engine during the river crossing is somewhat less than the likelihood of water entering the axle & transmission cases. Virtually all transmission cases and fluid reservoirs in a vehicle that heat up and cool down during operation actually require venting to stop fluid expansion (condensation). To put it casually, immersing a heated differential or transmission in cold water causes the housing to quench, causing it to suddenly contract.

Avoid unnecessary wear and expensive repairs with improved axle venting.

In this process, a housing normally sucks in air. If, for example, the axle housing ventilation is clogged or even too undersized, seals may be damaged and water is drawn in. In this case, the contaminated dirty water mixes with the axle oil, resulting in significantly higher wear of bearings, gears, seals, and so on. In the worst case, this can lead to total loss of mobility in a very short time.

Usually, the front & rear axles, as well as transmissions and transfer cases are equipped with longer breather lines. These lines are generally routed to the highest point of the vehicle for example the snorkel.
