I dont remeber what size it was that I got......I just looked up WOL's write up and parts list, went to Napa and grabbed everything I needed...it was easy mod to do......I have the top of my breather up in my passenger tail light.....sorry no pics...

:
Thanks Steve....I was a little worried Stan @ Northridge would not have any AEV Snorkels in-stock before I placed my order as a few of the members were looking at ordering one!... I thought you would have had a Snorkel on before me.....

***Side note - Figured out why my Stock box was not siting in properly...forgot to cut the little nipple on the top of the stock box. so the box can sit flush up against the Snorkel.

Breathers:
I was thinking of add the rear breather up into the tail light like a few other members have done!

Did you extend your Transfer Case Breather? From the write-up people are using either 5/16 or 1/4" fuel line for the breathers!

I have made the trip using 3/4's of a tank.....but you never know, so I suggest bringing at least 1 extra gerry can......better to be prepared than not...nice to top up in the morning at Wells lake then know forsure you have lots......then you have an empty gerry can...

Yes bring one Gerry Can...I never used mine last year...but you never know. I stored mine in a larger Rubbermaid container which helped with possible fumes.
