I'm running a w56 and two top shift transfer cases. Both will spew fluid when I roll over. It seems they vent through the shifter any good ideas to prevent the leak or add a catch can do I don't get covered in gear oil? 908929B9-7FD9-4036-9F41-0E9F5D05DE95.jpeg
 
Not really, it still bubbles up through the shifter when you're driving around at "high speeds" on the 2.8 box.
 
Don't roll over?

Our Samurais and Toyotas all do/did it. Is it leaking around the shifter plate or through the boot? My samurai had boots but would still leak some through it.
 
On mine, I rolled at Harlan and I had gear oil pour all over me. I got new shifter boots and I removed the stock vent drilled and tapped for a larger AN fitting and ran a vent line. I havent gotten gear oil on me since. I'll try and get a pic soon.
 
I have a nice big vent line running from right next to the shifter (one of those sensor holes) up into the engine bay and my shifters still leak. Didn't a few companies make sealed shifters at one point?
