If you don't wheel much and stay away from deep water just do a cone filter. But do a search on here, you can fit one in your stock airbox that way you have a little more protection just in case.

I'd go snorkel. That's just me. Looks cool. Would be getting cooler air instead of the super hot engine bay air. And just incase ur off on a trail and see a small body of water there wouldn't be much to worry about if you decided to go through it. That's me. Unfortunately right now I'm in need of more important parts first. Or else I'd have one.

My buddys 87 is on about 3 inches lift,
and he has just a cone filter that's all the way against
the firewall, and he does fine in deep water.
But a snorkel is still the way to go

I bought a knn and hate it! I'm wanting to sell it and get a snorkel but money is a little tight. I've been dead in the water because the unprotected cone ..from water splashing, not from being submerged
