snorkels and jeeps with abs

This maybe a real dumb noob question...why cant you use certain snorkels if you have abs? Vacuum or something?

I don't have abs, but my guess is that the abs pump and control module are probably in the way.

ABS pump is situated where the snorkel goes through the fender, in front of the master cylinder/booster.

You CAN run a snorkel with ABS, just get very creative with routing.

Maybe all the mainstream snorkels route somewhere where ABS might get in the way... but you can always work around that. Many people do cowl snorkels.
