Sweeeet.

Are these to be setup for actual water?.. When I worked for state department we had tons of Toyota products... and in several African countries yes, these had snorkels. But these earlier snorkels were in NO WAY waterproof.. they were made to avoid dust (main issue I saw this on a daily basis was Sudan). These snorkels had seams in them and if sealed both ends, top and bottom, then submerged,.. they would fill via the seams. We would seal them up with various silicone products or plastic welding (drove a few in moister areas like this - Sierra Leone for one).

Shouldn't be an issue if the newer ones are one piece and all the connections are also water-tight but, I'd have to see one before I waste $$ on one.

Safari snorkels are sealed up, as long as the install is done properly.. Not a waste of money compared to having to replace or rebuild a motor due to water ingestion. Of course the snorkel isn't the only thing you will have to worry about if you get stuck in water up to your windshield..

Okay then they are one piece. I was speaking from dealing with these for several years on hundreds of vehicles. Good to see there's now one rated for water... and we have had several engines replaced/rebuilt with awesome snorkels where they have allowed water ingress.

About time! I want to see it, & can't wait. Now let's see the price tag, before committing to purchasing one.

I am guessing still no update??

SEMA reps say they will ship early next year. I am still amazed at how long it has taken to bring these to market...

Any idea on a price for these?

I would guess around $400

Officially? An arm and a leg.

Ha! I am budgeting $500 shipped.

Any update?

Lots of pics of the 5th snorkel in the 5th gen section.

I know the tooling is done, but not sure of anything further.

Come on safari snorkel! I can only be so patient!

I emailed a client of mine at ARB last week hoping I could get some info on it and he said early next year, but wouldn't specify. 6 months ago, he said November. Who knows.
