I was afraid of that because I really think the Intake wont fit with that abs pod there was really hope'n that I could move the cruise unit and run it to the other side

Got mine installed today, picked up 3inch hole saw $12 at lows I already had pilot bit. Had to relocate under hood light. Everything went together great nice rubber gaskets to seal everything up nice an tight. Definitely has grumble inside when u hammer it, smoothes out cruising.

No..not really because the area of the cowl the tube attaches on is actually sealed from the top. Air flows from the vents in front of the driver and channels through an opening in the middle of the cowl to deliver air to the cabin fresh air duct. Only way you will get water there is if you drive into a hole where the water reaches your cowl..but by then you have more important things to worry about.

Does anyone have a pic of exactly how far up from the bottom of the cowl the intake comes? Say it's pouring and i'm wheeling and the Jeep tilts at "just" the right angle....
i'm thinking of adding a 1/4" tall plate to the intake tube to have "insurance"
