Someone recently asked about carb snorkels...not sure if any of those are for carb applications, but the one from the cowl looked like it might have been...

Here is one mounting an ARB snorkel.

I just used aluminum dryer vent tube to connect to the stock air box. Run it from the fender penetration, between the outer and inner fender to just behind the right headlight. Flip the stock air inlet to the air box so it faces up and forward. I put a 3" electrical conduit coupling inside the stock inlet to make it round and act as an adaptor to attach the vent tube. Wala! You have a water tight hook up.

Make your own

make your own with simple handtools and lots of planning.
The crbnunit snorkle looks good, I was too cheap to buy anything that nice

When you just piggy back off the air box are they sealed with a silicon so they are water proof and a filter used under the Cap?

i just built one on my ranger recently.

i took a 3" to 2" PCV reducer and connected it to the outlet on the airbox:

i then used 2 pieces of 2" PCV pipe and 2 90 degree fittings to route the piping to the inner fenderwell:

from here i cut a hole in the cowl housing and used 2 pieces of 2" PCV, a 2" coupler and a 90 degree fitting to complete the routing of the snorkels piping:

all piping is painted black now:

i decided to give the snorkel more air so i added a vent. this vent is used for campers Danco
Galvanized Plumbing Vent Cap for Mobile Home and it worked perfectly.

first i drilled a hole in the cowl with a 3 inch dewalt hole saw, then i used a 2 inch coupler, 2 pieces of 2 inch PVC pipe, and a 90 to bring the snorkel piping up through the cowl.

here is the vent before bolting it down and painting it:

here is the vent painted and bolted down:

and here is the vent painted:

i have alot more pics im my gallery, just follow the link in my sig.
