    Yep. Same here, pre drilled added liquid lock tight to screws and tightened it down. Didn't ratchet it down being careful not to strip them. Also coming home last night just jumped on the truck as it was the first cool night here. Definitely runs way smooth and 100% breathes better overall. Oh and I put it up to around 80mph no shake no whistling.

    I feel like maybe they should go between the snorkel and the A-pillar, seeing as there's already a bit of space there, maybe they're spacers:notsure:

    a lot of bad ass stuff
    I took a look last night and it seems pretty straight forward( I hope). Is there anything I need to look out for? Any tricks or tips? Is it easy to get everything lined back up and bolted back? How heavy is the fender? and my biggest concern, is do the bolts towards the door hold anything other than the fender in place?
    Sorry for playing 20 questions, but knowledge is power, or so they say.

    Your right, it I'd pretty straight forward. Everything should line back up fine since nothing else is moving. The fender itself is super light and the bolts towards the door only hold the fender. Don't worry, your door won't fall off :)

    Got my snorkel. Ended up having to pay $130 for duties. Considering I was going to have to pay that anyways I'm still a happy camper with how the group buy went down. Really appreciate it @mahaloTaco still saved a bunch with this.

    Installed my snorkel last night....

    Took me 2-3 hours. Lots of swearing, lots of "why the f&^K would they design it that way", lost a nut trying to fish my fingers up to some fasteners, cutting the fender brace bracket was fun. BUT! All-in-all, the bottom line is, the snorkel is in, and it looks goooooooood :devil:

    At least i can appreciate the blood, sweat, and tears (all of which actually happened) that went into this mod.

    thanks @mahaloTaco ! :mudding:
