Snorkeling is a popular recreational activity that allows you to explore the underwater world without the need for extensive diving equipment. All you need is a mask, snorkel, and fins. A snorkel allows you to breathe through your mouth while your face is submerged near the water surface. The equipment is designed to provide a comfortable experience and effective gas.
There is some confusion surrounding 4×4 snorkels and their purpose, and whether or not a snorkel is really necessary for your vehicle. However, it is responsible and necessary to carry a snorkel, as no amount of experience can replace it. Snorkels protect the air intake, increase air friction, and reduce performance. PADI requires a snorkel while under training for most classes, but there are no rules. Both The Adventure Portal rigs have a vehicle snorkel, and people often laugh and say they are unnecessary.
A snorkel is effectively a breathing tube for your car’s engine that is above the original equipment manufacturers’ standard air intake. While people ask when they see a snorkel, they do provide an added measure of safety. It is essential to get your snorkeling equipment early to get the right fit for a fantastic snorkeling experience.

Installing my snorkel was one of the easiest things I have done to my truck. Love having it and the way it looks. The reason I got my snorkel is living in Houston and the street flood that always happens and if it can get me and my family out of a tight spot is all worth it. O and they make a cover when u are in sand and super dusty places. They work really well.
@03:38 back in the late 80s, early 90s Toyota truck ads showed their trucks splashing through water. I knew a guy that hydro locked his Toyota Truck engine doing just that. He had a valid suit against them, but I do not know how it turned out in the end. I was active duty at the same installation, but he worked in a different shop
I tried to put pic up for you but I had a rover disco1 and I did my own snorkel. It looked like the manic version you can get for them. 3″ exhaust tubing rhino line sprayed. Snorkle head off eBay. 3 bent 90’s in single length pipe. Cut the last 90 off and shorten, then welded back on. That was to fit between inner and outer fender. Then a piece of rubber coated flex tubing in 3″. For rover the snorkle prices high hundred to thousands mine $25 and few hours! Look up manic snorkle for the look on rover. After my lease and I do buy out I might do the same type depending on space between fender.
Yo! I’ve watched this a couple of times and am in the process of doing some overlanding upgrades to my Taco. I’m not sure this is necessary for me, but I think I’m allowed to do some things that just look cool if I want, amiright? Anyway, I am on the fence between this and the ARB. Of course the ARB has the more known name, but I wanted to check with you personally to see if you’d have used that over your Dobinsons after having lived with it for a bit. Is it worth the extra money or is it just money saved that can be put elsewhere? I’d love your review/thoughts on the matter. I’d rather just buy once/cry once if it comes to that.
I hydrolocked my truck back in 97, a brand new dodge 2500 gas job, went through a water hole in a construction area at night with some buddy’s and a few beers, stopped running right away, had to get towed out . tow truck guy said insurance would total it because the water went half way up the seats, I had him tow it to my shop, took out all the spark plugs, drained all the fluids, all the fluids, turned over the engine a couple times, water came out the plug ports, put it all back together. ran like crap, took it back to the dealer, they changed two or three sensors, under warrantee, took a couple weeks to dry the seats, had that truck for another four years before selling it to my friend. never had any issue with it after the hydrolock, so, just sayin.
