my snorkel

See the time stamp, I just finished it.
Im not a big fan of the tube going over the side of the finder or in the middle of the wind sheild, so I did it my way. It could be better but it keeps the water out.

Fabed up an air box adapter-elbow, and used a 3" rubber coupler.

And eyeballed the finder cutout, very time consuming.

Yes, I was tired of the stock stuff. the problem is the under plastic shrunk and the brushed silver dident, so its wrinkled. some day ill find better plastic and fix them.

My bumper I built

I need to build a new one out of heavy gauge plate steel. Its only 1/8" thick all around, w/ the hooks its 5 lbs. lighter than stock.
It took awile to design it because I forgot most of my geometry, what a way to remember. LOL

with those d-rings don't go trying to high speed pull out a dodge like in the video where dude pulled off his bumper and tow hooks haha
