Automotive Customizers are willing to make us some snorkles.

I'm interested in one for a first gen, but alas, also live too far.

 

[sn0border88]

ditto what everyone else said. Someone has to live in FL

 

[Rofocowboy84]

We'd need two volunteers, one for 1st gen and one for 2nd gen, since the intakes are on different sides and the fender profiles are different. I'd definately be in for a 2nd gen one as long as they are decently priced.

What about Gen 3's?

What about Gen 3's?

This is from work so tell me if it works! Oh and the $ is from ym work I dont know what it cost outside....Thats what is cost us!

I see the snorkel, but don't see any prices or an application guide. I clicked on "TJM Airtec Snorkels" and it basically just gives an overview of what the snorkel is and what benefits it has.

plate or tube bumper?

NOW I find a snorkel! I just got rid of my stock air intake box (kept it around just for a snorkel application). Has anyone put on this TJM one?

As for the bumpers, would this guy's shop, or your shop 91SAS, be making a plate or tube bumper? Would be totally interested in a plate bumper that could hold a winch. Rear bumper with a tire carrier and jerry can holder would be great, too!

 

[91sasexplorer]

We are a custom shop!!! We do what you want from all Fab to Bolt on's !!
There is a application guide on there you just have to look for it.. As far as have I done one on a explorer No YJ,TJ,one f-250. I have done a few But let me tell you,
When the onwer of the truck is standing there and you cut A big hole in the NEW TRUCK fender "the look on there face is priceless" LOL As far as prices go you may have to call someone like 4 Wheel parts. My work does not do internet sales or shipping !

Heres the app guide for couriers/explorers. The only thing is that it is for the foreign models which could be quite a bit different mechanically. The snorkel shown is on the wrong (drivers) side for 2nd gens, but it also says that it shows a diesel model, which could be different.

Coming from teh nissan community on thier forums, Automotive Customizers aslo known as A/C doesnt make much of anything in house. He is like a retailer of odd parts.

I have a custom bumper on my truck that you would love ,This bumper is the best I have ever scene But If I do like it I will throw it out or till you it sucks.. This bumper gives you better angle of approach and you can see you winch cable wine in very very nice I built 3 of them not all for explorer but very nice.. If I know how to post I would show you! As far as the snorkel goes,yea the gas explorer is on the drive side but the diesel one is on the passenger side and I dont see why it would not work with a little fab I am going to order one monday for my truck and see how it works out ! If someone wants to post for me I can e-mail you pics!

 

[bmxking5]
