Snorkel

[Alt Freak]

Does anyone make a snorkel for the 5th gen? Which is the best?

 

[Antman]

Nope, not yet...:shrug:

does the 5th gen have sufficient seals to keep water from coming? Has anyone gone in like 3+ feet of water and know?

Airflow america has been working on a prototype, still do not know the release date. I am meeting with a company that does expedition vehicle builds this weekend, they are going to see if any existing snorkels can be modified for our truck.

Should have kept the video going while he opened the door!
Any water make it in with the 3ft of water? My old 3g would get a little wet - but nothing drastic. Just put a towel down there when going through - no major damage and barely any water.

Snorkel - The 5g engine compartment/air box seems a lot higher but a lot more water gushes into the engine bay in these things. That pedestrian safe front end ruined things!

Let me retract my statement, I was sitting in water for about 15 mins lol.

ARB said they would begin work if 150 people said they were interested.

If i am not mistaken arb does not own safari snorkel, they said that the would suggest a snorkel be made after 150 people show interest. Dont know if anyone will be waiting at the assembly line after the 149th email.
