Strangely that makes me think of this girl named Tricia ....

Any chance of an underhood pic as well ?

I'm good wiff PVC, I'm about making things that function, not spending money just to have the thing.

Is there a tech build post on this item anywhere ? Anyone ?

Now ... where's Tricia's number ?

HOWEVER IT MIGHT BE VERY FUNCTIONAL, just to give your buddy some credit for building the thing. But I want my jeep to look good since I put so much work into it already.

and crayons?... lol i have nothing to say about that comment. If you want to go cheap and rig everything you should have bought a bronco II.

Gidday Ramac.... I can assume that as you own a '2000 XJ, you will have the ABS system, windsheild water bottles, making the fitting of 'snorkel' tubes a little difficult.

I'm interested in what items you use, as I am considering the same Snorkel idea.

To tell you the truth, I would have to go look at it... right now at 2 in the morning when its freezing outside ..... I guess its time for a cigarette break lol. I'm hoping I'll just use a different reservoir from another jeep or other vehicle to relocate it.

I'll get back to you in a few.

But this is what the Safari Snorkel company wants you to do which is obviously difficult as you
stated... I think they give you a replacement bottle that is a little smaller to fit. Go here to the bottom of the page: http://www.safarisnorkel.com/guides/.../ss1195HF.html
