    Sic Rig you got there. Prinsu is awesome in accomadating a DAI bracket (still in testing phase). But Other roof racks company had no plans in making it.

    Once again, Thank You for making all that happen..

    The purpose of the snorkel is to breath above water. In a desert sand storm you may find your self needing an awful tall snorkel. Better to pre filter with something fast easy and cheap. And I would think that under the hood would actually be better place to get air for the engine during a sand storm out in the SW.

    Not a sand storm. I think I would want to turn it off in a sand storm. A lot of dust get kicked up off road and the snorkel pulls air in from above a lot of it. Snorkels were originally put on tractors for that purpose before recreational off roading was a thing.

    I paid about $730 because of discounts and free labor. Out the door, MSRP would cost you around 1,300+ for labor.
