You’d have to find one that geometrically works. The TJ has more space between the side door and the front fender— compare the TJ pic with the KK pic in the previous post.

Do you have a pic of a KJ snorkel for comparison?


I spent some time Sunday installing a Safari Snorkel on a KJ and upon initial inspection... I think it'll fit a kk.

I am not confident enough to buy one just yet considering their price tag ($500) but the lines fit pretty well



OOOOH. It astonishes me that they came out with a Wk2 and KL snorkel before the KK. The KK by now has far more people that wheel them than the KL or the WK2, being that it is a cheaper and older platform.

The KK isn't marketable. few plan to do the things we have done to it. the KL and WK2 just hit the market so they have a window of opportunity to make products.

Some websites like AutoAnything.com say the KJ Snorkel fits the KK.... I cant believe no one on here hasn't attempted it. airboxes are in a similar location. the fenders sit slightly higher on the KK. detailed photos of the KJ snorkel would be very helpful.
