First time I've seen this brand come up, Anyone else ever stumbled acrossed this? I know it's not really material for most around here just due to the fact that it's more cosmetically appealing over a home brew and honestly not needed for most of us around here. Just wanted to share, Flame on.....:smt019

Looks like a typical Chinese knock off to me. Good luck getting any support for it when it fails or doesn't fit right.

I bought that snorkel for my jeep. fit together perfect and I've had no issues with it. And it got to my house in less than a week, I'd buy it again

Do you have a picture you could share of it installed, maybe one of it under water to show effectiveness?...lol on the second part.

I still want my jeep sorta "pretty" being that I drive it into some real nice parts of town, but the water in florida seems to keep getting deeper.

Haven't done any deep water crossings with it though, I got it for a "just in case" kinda thing. Like if I go into a mud puddle and it ends up being really deep

Except it doesn't even appear to be hooked up under the hood, or was that just a picture before it was hooked up? Any pictures of the finished product?

It says 4.0, 5.2 and 5.9, but how does it connect? There doesn't seem to be connecting parts.

On the ad, the silver pipe looking piece top middle gets sealed and riveted to the stock air box. The black square seals off the stock inlet. The snorkel attaches outside the fender. The "slim" black piece connects on the inside of the fender to the snorkel. Then is attached to the silver piece via the black tube. When I'm home this weeken I'll grab pictures of how it goes together

Thanks for the pics It looks good on there. Doesn't look like I'll be able to use it though, My berserk cutouts are to far up the fender line to fit the snorkel on.

It's not really diving into deep water I was thinking about with this, more about wanting to get my intake away from the engine heat and away from the water that splashes up and drenches my filter when i'm going through a creek crossing. by the time we are into water deep enough to need a snorkel we are Fcked anyways.

Then smack dab in the middle of this pic is the black rubber tube connecting the inner fender well piece to the air box. It's hard to see but it's there

Then this silver piece is sealed and riveted to the corner of the air box you have to cut out
