Show me your Snorkels!
I want to see some snorkels folks. Perferably on a Wrangler YJ but any wrangler will do.

Been having issues with my engine coughing when I go ScubaJeepin' and hopeing a snorkel will fix that problem First though, I want to see what it'll look like.

Not so easy to do on a YJ, although it can be done.

Looks kinda hard to do on a YJ because the cowls are shaped differently. Although, I really do like the price that guy spent building his compared to hwo much I'd pay for a plastic one. (almost $400 )

I may look into the hummer snorkel more just for giggles.

Ah! Something cheap like that but with a hummer style top to keep the mud/water out would be the ticket! Lots of great ideas here!

Looks like I need to borrow my neighbors pipe bender and assemble a hummer style snorkel top.

round one. broke it off on a tree.



round two. got rid of the air filter up top, and made an airbox that houses a k&n.





round three will be a hummer style intake most likley. i have ideas different from what ive seen though.... well see when i break this one off. ps. both attempts, and even when i add in a 3rd WHEN i break this one, are still cheaper then an ARB even with the k&n



oh yea, i use it to, and it works.

Nice to know! I'll be doing that but with a Hummer style top on it.

Happen to have any pictures of how you rigged it up under the hood?

i like the ideas of the filter on the top of the snorkel because it seems it would have more power than haveing the stock airbox,just me tho,more of a forced air induction,,john
