I thought they stopped selling the ARB snorkle due to fitment problems?
ARB was due to fix that though...did they ever get it straightened out?

LOL. I was hoping to see more money donated to the "Get TJ a Snorkle Fund" ...but that's been slow going. Send contributions to PayPal: 0ld01x@yahoo.com

I was thinking the same thing about my ARB. But after driving in traffic and high speeds I got home and checked the filter and it was bone dry. There are little slits in the top that allow the water to drain when it is raining.

How deep *roughly* can you take your car with a snorkel with it still able to function, excluding the fact that your truck *might* float, saying you have traction, how deep can you treck?

this weekend I was up over my headlights for a very brief second. The thing with the snorkel is you still need to take into account your starter and more importantly your alternator. Those are not protected by the snorkel so if you do plan on doing deep water crossing it might be a good idea to carry a spare. There is also the ECU which is located under the center consule, if you stop and take on water your ECU is done for.

Ebay Snorkel yeah, I like the fact that they use a picture from ARB to promote their PVC snorkel.

Here is a question I have had about snorkels; how do they effect air flow? That is an aweful lot of plumbing for the air to make it through, does it rob any HP?
