Alabama thread!

Well my driver side one is fine! Works like a charm! My passenger went a lot faster and it was a little harder to tell if it was where it was supposed to be. No i didn't use anything more to seal it up i just tapped it in with a 1/4 drive screw driver I have and just worked it in.. It was a tight fit so I used some diff oil around the brim of the seal. It just has a SUPER slow leak right now on my passenger side which can only mean i'm not as far in as I need to be. It is simple.. The longest thing to do was get that damn axle nut off!

You have a ton of electronics to seal up.. I know it's called a Snorkel but its not intended for the same use as it is in swimming.. LOL! It's more for relocating your air intake to take in cleaner air while wheeling, and the occasional crossing. but not full submersion! LOL!

 

His truck has been in water up to the windows how it sits now...

 

I've had mine pretty deep also.. With my 6in lift on you could reach out the window and slap the water about 4-6inches below the window seal Basically just below the handle on the outside.. but that was one of my original problems.. Later it caused my actuator and fron add actuator to short circuit.. Water is bad mmkay!

But I'd be more then willing to watch!

 

oh, i know water is bad!!! lol That was back when we had the truck for 8 months. He is really wanting it for looks now though.

 

okay so what will i need to get to seal all the stuff up?

ya water is bad but when I'm in it its my friend i know what they are for but i would like to make it to its full potential if i ever need it...key word IF.

 

please looks!!! it at least has looks and the looks actually function unlike most of these mall crawlers.

So photochopping time for some new wheels. I've got it down to most likely 3, but I decided to post the 6 I liked while just looking. Haven't checked bolt pattern/offset information yet, so that may be a determining factor. Kinda sucks I didn't have my Satoshi on during this picture.

Top 3 in no particular order.

American Outlaw Bunker


Level 8 Guardian


G-FX Offroad 7


Then the other 3 I was looking at
MB Gunner 6


MB Torque
