I know the KKs don't have a snorkel (except those Aussies...) but the KJ and KK seem similar so why haven't/can't we install one?

The Commander has one too. That one might follow the sharper angles on the kk. Might take a combination from that and the kj snorkel?

You could even try a DIY snorkel. I've seen some impressive PVC snorkels before. If you use just the right amount of heat, you can bend that stuff to match whatever contours you want. Just a thought.

Check Pirate and other sites for homemade snorkels, haven't seen too many I would actually run on anything but a beater trail rig but ................

Here is one to get your creative juices going, even has " aftermarket " exhaust to get the tail pipe above the water as well

Wow... That's a hot mess!

I was thinking something more like this. Doesn't look too terrible.

Here's one a guy from from Mexico (?) did. Looks like it might have been adapted from another vehicle. Doesn't have as much sass as the one in Tom's pic though :ROTFL:

That's an impressive bumper...really fat haha. Why have I never seen this KK yet?

That's actually a really good looking snorkel too though haha.
