After you put on the plastic snorkel tube, you must also extend the three valves they control pressure inside the front and rear axle transfer cases and inside the transmission. You must bring the breathing tubes for these three devices up or above water level before your job is done.
Water will get into the standard Jeep, or most other brands, but have the 3 gearbox breathing tubes, this extender job absolutely must be done to avoid the water contamination of these gearboxes which cause expensive repairs. This work on the tubes is not standard with Jeep and if you have snorkel installed, ask installer about doing the extending tubes also.

Guys...thank you for the vid...and all respect to Rugged Ridge for a great product. There is one thing I did differently on my install...I did not install the valve and tubing as I had a hard time finding a use for it. Instead I drilled two little holes s nit lower than in the vid. Also, left the four original holes unplugged. Works like a charm. When the engine sucks the air, the air takes the path of least resistance...which is the snorkle. What is sucked through the small holes is insignificant. However if water goes in the box, it drains right away. I thought I these details with you all and hope you find them useful.

Very cool! It looks easier than I thought it would be. I'm going to have to pick one of these up soon.

Leave the valve open when normally driving, it’s to remove moisture from the air box so your air filter doesn’t degrade, and when you come across deep water that’s when you close it, leave it open normally

This doesn't seem too difficult to install. Fairly easy. Can't wait to install one on my ecoDiesel.

I have a 3.0 diesel here in Brazil I would like to know when will have a version of these, I translated it using google translator

[mmmii]

I don’t know if you double your fording depth being that there are electrical systems you probably don’t want to submerge.

Was a promised a JK version of this new updated snorkel over 2 years ago. Been waiting ever since... :(

When driving in rain with the snorkel installed, how does the water drain so that it doesn’t reach the air filter?

[ladyrocklander]

Wondering if that Jeep has the stock Rubicon OEM rock rails?

[caligula]

Think the high intake can handle hwy winds?

[terencegillespie]

Great idea for how to attract wasp nests. I’ve noticed that really rich Jeep owners have theses installed.

[imlame]

can you still add a light bar on top ??

[wendywhite]

Changing a Jeep like that will that bring the value down?

[MrGerryoc]

Same snorkle $139 on amazon what a rip off
