thats alot of rain bro .. might be easier to buy one for your truck .

ok so worked on this thing yesturday and today .. almost finished just need the 3 1/2" hose to connect the snorkel to the mass air flow sensor., and thats it its will be done.

and the aluminum tubing thats on the snorkel end will not stay there its just there so i can hang it.the snorkel is all fiberglass and some rivnuts.
