Jeep JK Wrangler Xhd Low Mount Snorkel Kit 2007-2011Dusty Trails Rides and Deep Water Fordings. Anyone who takes their
rig off-road is likely to encounter these conditions. The new Modular
XHD Snorkel System from Rugged Ridge relocates the vulnerable stock air
intake location to help reduce dust clogged filters and the risk of
hydro-locking your engine. It is also the first snorkel designed with
the modular functionality of a Pre-filter Low Mount and Ram High Mount
air intake design. Unlike other snorkels, you don't have to give up
flexibility for functionality. Not only did we engineer our snorkel to
allow the windshield to fold and doors to be removed, we built it for
use with our dual battery tray, windshield light bar and windshield
light mounting tabs... Because what good is having a snorkel to cross
the river, if you have to leave your lights and the dual battery (to
power your winch) on the other side? Note: Windshield light mounting
tabs only compatible with low mount.
The Modular XHD Snorkel
System comes standard with the Pre-filter Low Mount. The Pre-filter Low
Mount relocates the air intake to just below the windshield and draws
cool air from outside the hot engine compartment. The optional Ram High
Mount design allows the air intake to be extended up an additional 21"
to the top of the windshield. The two air intake mounts are easily
interchangeable to give you the modular functionality best suited to
your needs. The system is manufactured from premium thermoformed
plastic, mandrel bent aluminum and hi-temp silicone connection hoses.
Built in manual drain valves channel away excess water to prevent it
from entering the intake system. It installs with minor modification to
the fender, but without the major cutting and surgery that other kits
require. The new lower air cleaner box installs in place of the factory
unit, so you don't have to "hack and tap". Just attached the factory
upper air box, chose from the Pre-filter Low Mount or High Mount design
and go!
