Constructed from nearly indestructible cross-linked polyethylene,
this intake is offered with a highly effective cyclonic Pre-Filter or
Air Ram.
AEV's JK snorkel can be had with either our Air
Ram (scoop) or our cylindrical Pre-Filter (bowl). Both allow the
engine to breath equally well, but both have distinct advantages and
disadvantages when compared to one other. The Air Ram is designed to
draw in air and separate rain water from the air charge. It is
incredibly rugged and well suited to wooded terrain where impacts with
trees and branches are likely. By comparison, the pre-filter is
designed to draw in air and separate both rain and dust from the air
charge. Though the Pre-Filter lacks the ruggedness of the Air Ram, it
is well suited to dry, desert terrain where thick dust is likely. The
Pre-Filter is also cleanable and virtually reusable for the life of the
snorkel.
The complete package includes detailed instructions along with
hardware and is installed with only minor modifications to the stock JK
hood. Practical upgrades include AEV's stylish steel Heat Reduction
Hood, which is pre-cut for the air intake system, just like the
original Jeep M38A1 hood.
AEV's JK Snorkel air intake system is the essential engine
protection accessory for overland adventurers whose brand of
exploration includes the deepest water crossings and the dustiest dirt
tracks.
