Tube elbow etc for snorkel
Posted: Fri Jun 26, 2009 8:31 pm
I have an old 4by that has become a bit of a project recently.
Its not the sort of thing you can buy bits for readily, so i was planning on building a snorkel out of 3" stainless tube. My Bro In Law is a steel fabber, so he can tig the bracket/mounts for the A pillar ok, and i was planning to make an airbox arrangement out of sheet etc.
My Q is, where do you get the 3" rubber type elbows etc from? Do i use something like os radiator hose? Turbo hose seems too stiff (not to mention exxy).
See a few GQ's etc about with ss fabbed snorkels, but never been able to catch one yet to ask.
