    Ok guys I have a question or two...
    1. Should I get a snorkel first before 35's or wait?
    2. If I don't get a snorkel right now should I get something to help collect the water/moisture from going to the air filter?
    @ChandlerDOOM or @geekhouse23 be able to help me with this

    You'll be fine without a snorkel if you keep your fender liners in. I was in water up to my head lights today and was fine. Unless you are in deep water often go 35's first.

    You'll be fine, just be mindful in heavy rain and deep water. Just avoid both if you can until you figure out a liner or snorkel. Something I did was unbolt the end of the intake that goes the the fender and just tuck it out of the way so its not grabbing air from the wheel well, Or a silicone elbow fitting and connect it at the end of the intake box and face the opening towards the firewall.

    Sweet thanks buddy! A snorkel is coming just not at the moment...airflow ones aren't to bad priced so that's what I'm likely going with

    ^^^This.....I would just pull the intake tube, as ChandlerDOOM said, so it's not sucking directly from the hole out to your fender area. I think pointing toward the front or back would be better than sucking from the fender opening.

    What are you doing for wheels? You know the OEM TRD offroad wheels are too narrow for 35's?
