Anyone reccomend a certain snorel, or even know where I could get it hooked up and such, I'm going to be adding one to my 2000 xterra SE, and I'm curious as to where I could get the snorkel itself, as well as the work done to put it on. My girlfriend's neighaborhood gets a lot of flooding, and it'd be mighty awesome to be able to drive her out to her house even through 3-4 feet of water

First off, welcome!

Second off, get used to using the search function, it'll help you out a ton on this site...and it'll keep the search vultures off your back

Third, check out the Parts and Accessories section as this is for discussing specific products with the companies that manufacture them.

Check this one out.

Fourth, Should there be a warning about toasting the alternator?

Lol, I was looking at that site, but I wouldn't know where exactly to get the work done, I live in Williamsburg, in VA, and I'm totally baffeled as to where I could have it done, and what of the alternator getting toasted? I've never heard of that happeneing, but then again I'm not that avid of a 4x4 enthusist....I'm hoping to break into it big time though And thank you for the welcome ^_^

i dont know if this helps or not but there are a few stores in va that could help with the installation and might be able to tell you where to get the snork, they are independent 4x4 (ashland), Outlaw motor sports (culpepper), Iron pig off road (fredericksburg), and The 4x connection (winchester)

I also have phone numbers if you need them, just let me know

Can I have the number for Iron Pig? That's the closest.

540-361-7400

Dude check out VAXC
You can get a ton of info from us......and a bunch of already have the TJM snork.....the only one available for us if I'm not mistaken. And we would be willing to install it for you so as long as you let us do the cutting!

its true, they help me all the time

Lol, Cut away ^_^U I'd be SO damn appriciate for the help, like, beyond knowlege. I just found this site the other day, I've had my xterra sice 2000, the month it came out, if I'm not mistaken, and since then it's been mom's car, and then I got my license and it fell into my hands, and now my parents are all about me loading it up with all sorts of insane 4x4 gear, they want to help. Anyway, as I was saying, I found this site the other night and I've been so damned excited, ask my ex, lol, it's all I talk about ^_^

don't forget about the safari snorkel. have one sitting in my garage right now but haven't had the opportunity to put it on. not a direct link to purchase, but here's safari's web site: http://www.safari4x4.com.au

I prefer the safari because it follows the lines of the X better. IMO I ordered mine from 4wheel parts. Its the one for a Navara 3.2 L Diesel.

I agree with HI

For my install on this go here: http://www.xterrawolf.com/snorkel.html

Man, I would totally love to have a snorkle but I just dont know If I have the stones to bore a giant hole in my perfectly good fender. Definitely takes commitment.

New fender's are cheap.



You can get a new fender, replace the original one, and make the hole in the replacement fender for the snorkle...and then, if you ever change your mind...you have the oem part ready to go back on, etc. (Or just keep the second one as the back up if you screw the hole up, etc...)

wait, you can buy new fenders? where?

I installed my snorkel in a day, never did one before. Works great.

Okay, I'm just curious, does anyone know how much it'll cost (roughly) to get my car jacked up about 5-6 inches.

there are several ways

1. 3"suspension lift and 2" or 3"body lift = around $1500

2. sas = $5000 to $7000

3. park your xterra on cinder blocks. 4 blocks = $20

:x lol, I like the cinder block idea ^_^U but that definately woln't get me far. I'll probably get suspension lifts, that doesn't sound like a bad idea. Oh, and BTW, Ninjas = awesome.

Snorkel.. then random lift question.. now ninjas?? wth?

Check out 4x4parts.com (AKA Automotive customizers), they have the TJM and ARB. I have the TJM and absolutely love it. Trick is you gotta seal it well and be creative when it comes to the airbox....drilling a hole in your fender is no big deal as they have a good template to go by.

Good Luck
