I think Airflow are coming out with one for the KK.
Send Michael a message at Gibson, he's the one in charge of it all.

KK + ARB = :grim: ? What a terrible thing to realize. You know, out of the list of reasons as to why I have a KK, and not some other vehicle... one of those reasons was because it was different. It's not a KJ or XJ, as seen every 20 seconds on every single road. Nor is it a Patriot or Compass, as seen in every mall parking lot. And above all else, it is NOT a Wrangler. Yes, I wanted a Rubicon more than anything (hell I would've taken a used Sahara), but the KK was new and unique. Not as fat as the Commander, but who needs that much anyway? So here we are, us KK owners, with little to no hopes of an aftermarket life.

It's just the practical truth then: If you want something done, do it yourself. Become a fabricator. Well, I can't afford that right now. So, I'm stuck. :2cents:

Welcome to the KJ's world circa 2001-2004, the early years. And there still isn't THAT much for the KJ in the aftermarket world. You may have to wait like we have been waiting or as you said, fab it yourself.

tony there is not too many other ways to design a snork but the airflow at least fot the KJ anyway

thats why i would buy the airflow over the Arb/ safari any day

they at least had the intestinal fortitude to make a snork for the KJ , thier xj snork is pretty good, they are making a snork for the v8 & crd grands and commanders

I'm hoping for a better finish look and overall better looking. I just think the other ones really look cheap. Sorry to anyone that has one but just my :2cents:

If ARBs look like them then I am out as well but holding out hope.

Snorkels are about like rock rails not too many ways to make them design wise but there are ways to make them look better overall if that makes sense.

Line-xing it might make it look a lil better,but I'm afraid it might cause too much drag.
Going 80,sometimes I wonder if this thing's gonna fly off. :shock:

They do look the same. :ROTFL:

saw a guy with a big diesel dodge that had one out of aluminum, had his name laser etched down the pipe, the piece ontop looked like a polished chrome steam cleaner attachment or something just bigger with a ovalish prefilter, the part at the fender looked like pretty heavy injection molded stuff

now i'm sure he paid a penny or two for it

but there's more than one way to skin a cat than the entire thing being made out of plastic

not knockin arb cause like you said they did make one

not knockin airflow either

but for 700 bucks i think i could probably make a stack from aluminum then modify it to fit with a cheeper models fender to airbox component
