Nice one on the lift

Here's snorkle ideas :

That's a cheap enclosed filter, some 76mm tube, 1x 45o and 1x 90o silicon elbow, 1 straight silicon coupler at top on to 76mm 45 bend in aluminium and finally a 76mm snorkel top

Make sure u fit the 20mm drain bung to the under side of new filter that's fitted to UR old filter and trim the hole in outer wing with body gasket from a caravan shop

Bide UR time and look for bargains on eBay and u can do this for around £100

The other option is to use a flexi hose, go up the inner wing out the top up a pillar, I wanted 3inch ducting tho, not sure if 3inch flexi will fit all way up inner wing

put some 31s on it....they retain the usability without affecting the gearing...

if you have anymore just send them over....

What are your plans for some tyres?
Are you wanting some all terrain or aggressive patterns?

You can see roughly the tow bar mounting on this then there is the tow ball and NATO type hitch which holds on with a pin and split pin
