Is any one running a snokle?

Has anyone found a snokle for our year CJ's. I think I would really like to have one.

 

If you're looking for a buy it and bolt on solution, I think you might be out of luck. Every snorkel for the older CJ's I've seen around here is owner fabbed. 74-75, the orphan jeeps.

 

There is a lot more to underwater running than a snorkel.
Waterproof ignition, distributer, vents on the axles have to be raised, and all sorts of stuff.

And from what I have read, every time you go in water that deep, you have to go through everything to make sure the water is out.

 

Yeah, I've already rerouted my vent lines, Water is evil! worst damage is from water down the carb.

 

I expect somebody makes a snorkel for the Wrangler ... probably will fit with a little tweaking. The windsheild angles are different.

 

Unless you do alot of deep water riding, ie. rivers & such, I wouldn't bother. While a snorkle looks cool, if you ride alot of wooded trails the snorkle can act more as a limb snagger than anything else. In order to really take full advantage of a snorkle you would have to be chest high in water. An easier route may be to fab up some ducting & run it to the inside of the cab. This can help tremedously when you first hit a waterhole as the water won't dump down the carb or soak the filter element. Kind of like how an aftermarket cold air intake works except the filter element would be behind the firewall or in the engine compartment in an enclosed housing w/ the intake part behind the firewall (in the cab). Just my $.02
