TJM Snorkel for 5th Gen?

TJM Snorkel

Mine was delivered last week. Installing this Wednesday (Day off). Will post pictures. Have a gobi rack, but should just fit in from of the wind fairing but may have to make some adjustments. I'll take pictures of the process and final product.

Looking forward to seeing it :thumb:
 
TJM snorkel install

Almost put it in the for sale section because I didn’t know I had to drill.
Nice and low profile to maintain my stock look.

Install pics

I’m gonna try to post up the shitty pics I have but it’s hard to do since my 4runner doesn’t get outside the garage if it’s over 68F.

I’ll try to explain in words:
Snorkel goes thru fender.
Attaches into intermediate tube and is secured with a large hoez clamp.
The lower part of the stock airbox goes into the intermediate tube and there is no visible difference when looking at the airbox assembly thru the engine compartment.
Like I said, I’m keeping my rig bone stock and this low profile snorkel really helps.

If anyone wants they can borrow my 4.5” hole saw as long as they return it and pay for shipping . I didn’t end up using it cause it didn’t want to cut holes in my fender so it’s mounted on with magnets and double sided tape.
 
Intermediate tube

First pic is the connection from snorkel to intermediate tube.
Second pic is connection from intermediate tube to airbox.

Yeah yet another reason why this might not be a good choice. Form > fuction every time.

But hey we all know how important looking cool is I get it. Who cares if your sucking in water if your too busy swatting off all the hot pu$$y your new Prado snorkle is getting you. :dancin:

HaHaHaHa!

"all the hot pu$$y your new snorkle is getting you"

....just making a note that is the first time that has ever been written in human or extra terrestrial language

(not taking issue with its accuracy however)

No hole drilled? So you have a non functional snorkel installed?
 
100% #functional

To me it’s 100% functional. It won’t see much dust since it stays in the garage when the weather is bad >68F, which it is most of the time in San Diego. Plus I already got my money’s worth from the snorkel since I got 5 more IG #followers and 23 #likes. It’s not like someone is gonna check the hardware installation like people check for properly rated modified wiring/clean installation, only weirdos do that.
I just don’t wanna take too big a financial hit when my lease is over in 7 months.

:lmao:
 
LOL I have no idea if davester00 is serious or kidding, I mean who the hell mods a leased vehicle? :bash:

Anyway the picture of the snorkel mounted with what appears to be a baja designs flat rack helped me make a decision. So thanks. :thumb3:

I have a baja flat rack and have an antenna on passenger fender and those were the two possible fitment questions I had. The pic appears to have answered one of the questions, so I placed the order.

FYI Sierra exped had free shipping

My wife drives the T4R and it is mostly stock too:flame:

No Cut Drill Snorkel mod

I feel I "left some money on the table".

In order for me to maximize the #likes of my no drill snorkel I also need to update my forum signature. My signature will have every single: patch, sticker, #mod installed on my vehicle, in addition to my college transcript, 10 years income history, credit score, DIT, net worth and my cubic displacement + girth to length ratio.

In a few days I will post a through video/writeup:
"4runner 5th Gen No Drill Snorkel Mod"
This video will contain all the information where you can purchase all the fasteners: VHB double sided tape and magnetic fasteners on Amazon.
I was able to save about (2 hours labor) ~ $180 when I got mine installed at the dealership.

I've been getting tons of request for this video so stay tuned !
