Hiya! Welcome to the land of better smilies, looser dirty-word filters, and a shared annoyance with clueless noobs who refuse to research before posting idiot questions. Now go out and do the wiener dogs proud!

rock sliders are on my mile long list of mods, along with a bodylift, wheel spacers, tires, a G80, and a light bar for the roof and custom front and rear bumpers.

If a snorkel was a feasable mod, then yes..until then I will just tape a bunch of straws together and hope for the best :coffee:

It would be Me :coffee: .. There is a bit of info about it on the OS in a very Long thread. I have been meaning to start another here, but would like to get it completed first. I used a snorkel from a 96-02 4Runner, had to do a bit of modification to make it fit our body lines, next step is to get an air box like the one Jame's found for me (on the OS thread) and build a new washer fluid container...

I just got done reading all 19 pages of that thread lol. It does fit the body line quite well! Once you get it all hooked up and see how it performs, I will be that much closer to cutting a 3" hole in my front fender!! :awesome:
