Snorkel for 1985 P/U
i searched and havent found anything.....
i would like to get a premade bolt on snorkel for my truck... its an 85 pickup 4x2... however, all the stuff i see is for a truck with an airbox and EFI
does anyone make a snorkel for the CARBED 22R? i need one..... also if not... has anyone got a writeup to a homemade one?

Yup, it's the ARB one. Got it from Central 4WD and IIRC, it was around $260. I'm not sure if it'll bolt right on though since 2WD and 4WD fenders are different. There are cheaper homemade snorkel articles out there. Just do a search on the Pirate, 4x4wire and ORC Toy boards.

would switching my fenders to 4x4 fenders be a bolt on ordeal? i think the 4x4s are wider and i need a bit more width, probably can get them a lot cheaper than fiberglass as well

I know nothing about carbs so I wasn't sure if this would help you. I figured if I were going to do this I'd rather use PVC piping instead of buying a kit.
I'm sure Bruce will speak up about his setup pretty soon - it's definitely a less than obvious mod on his rig

YES, all the sheet metal, glass, grills, bumpers, lights, interior, etc. are interchangeable between 2WD & 4WD's of the same body style.
The 4WD fenders just have a flare molded in for wider tires.
