Go to Home Depot or Lowes, pick up a 36" piece of 3" PVC, 3-22*,2-90* and some primer and glue. A pilot bit and a whole saw for the fender. Cant see whats under the hood, maybe some dryer vent flex!

Good job!
Plumber, huh?
(though top 90 is sweep, and main is ABS)
considered flex, but difficult to waterproof.

Will post a pic soon. Am trying to find a muffler shop around here that can bend 3" steel to the specs of the model I made from PVC. Want a cleaner look under the hood.

I wonder how hard it would be to make a snorkel out of some rectangular tubing. So it would look like the river raider one.
I think 3x2 is around the right demension. Any body know the length of the horizontal and verticle parts of the rr snorkel?

Just look at a pic of one, and take measurements on your JK. Better yet, figure out where you want it to go and put it there. Be creative and show us something of your design that's all new, but with rectangle tubing, and not cheap and cruddy like mine.
