Are you happy with it? In the end thats the only thing that matters...

Just make sure you cant injest water into the intake and you should be golden.

This is the best place to express your ideas without being attacked. most people on Naxja have deep pockets and if they don't like it they call it crap. They are crap, crap, crap. CF RULES!!!!!!

im thinking about later down the road taking it out and putting flex pipe at the bottom to clean it up and make less places for water to get in.

I like it. If you dont care what your jeep looks like then go for it dude. and if it does get taken out by a tree, $20 will replace it. I personally wouldnt do it but if I saw it on the street/trail, you would get two thumbs up and a request to scope it out. ingenuity FTW!! and as for the heineken mini keg, they have newcastle and coors light ones too, jic you like those better than heineken

Please nobody copy this setup its a horrible design! There are a lot better ways to make a cheap homemade snorkel.
