Shop Rugged Ridge AmFib Snorkel - www.quadratec.com/p/rugged-ri...
The Rugged Ridge AmFib Snorkel System is available for the 2018 and newer Jeep Wrangler JL and the 2020 and newer Jeep Gladiator JT and is compatible with both the 2.0L and 3.6L engines. This unique snorkel system gives you the choice of a high mount snorkel, or a low cowl mount snorkel in one kit that you can switch between in a matter of seconds. The AmFib snorkel doesn't require any modification to the exterior body panels of your Jeep, and re-uses your factory air box for a quick and easy installation. The AmFib Snorkel offers a number of advantages in addition to simply moving your air intake higher. Rob walks through all the benefits you can gain by installing a Rugged Ridge AmFib Snokel system in your Jeep and even shows just how easy it is to get it installed.

So glad they finally came out with a snorkel that you don't have to cut into your jeep.

@rob_quadratec 4 года назад

Agreed, not having to cut into the hood is a very nice feature!

@Eksile8 2 года назад

I just spoke with rugged ridge, after installing this on a jeep with no mods under the hood. This is more of a dirt trail snorkel. It does not have waterproof fitment out of the box. You will need to seal it yourself. Even though it comes with a high and low mount, it is not meant for high water traversing.

@Jackal_Blitz 2 года назад

Yea, Rob said that pretty clearly in the video.

@DuzBee 6 месяцев назад

Can you explain further please? From the video it seemed to be very sealed, even using silicon and Christmas tree clips, I cannot see where water would come in via this snorkel??

@jeepthis1257 4 года назад

I love the snorkel especially the lower option. Win for rugged ridge.

@gregoryingram7561 3 года назад

Negative!! The installation cost more than the snorkel! Almost twice as much!

@snowmeowoutdoors802 4 года назад

I like the look of the short snorkel. Especially if it is body colored like their SEMA version.

@philipdelzmen7226 4 года назад

I totally agree

@rob_quadratec 4 года назад

Agreed! Easy as dropping it off at your local body shop! Mine may or may not be there right now...

@JT_Adventures 2 года назад

I like the low mount look much better, but don't want to hinder the benefits of adding the snorkel by going for that look. I rarely ever do deep water crossings, so this is really for the cooler air and dust reduction in my case. Will the low mount snorkel provide similar benefits in cooler air as well as reducing dust getting into the air filter?

@anibalbabilonia1867 4 года назад

Do you guy's have a version of that one for the jk wrangler? It looks easy and simple to install than the other one's i've seen for the jk!👋😎👍

@rlaracue 4 года назад

Cool install. Odd question. What is make & part number of the antennae? I really would like that in my 2018 JKU Rubicon.

@AnthonyHarris-cb9zg 3 года назад

I like the low mount I wish they had this for jk ...

@HelloFumofu 4 года назад

Are the temperature readings the same in the lower configuration? I picture they wouldn't be as cool as the high configuration because of the angle.

@mav0990 3 года назад

Are diff breathers needed also? If so can you do a video on how to install the ARB diff B.

@overlandunderwater4036 2 года назад

Will this work with a light bar across the top of the window that uses the same lower mounting spot?

@juancasanova2449 Год назад

Will it work with light bars brackets on each side (fish bone brand) holding my front 50" light bar?. Thanks

@r3dracoon117 4 года назад

Will this be able to pair with the mopar cold air intake if I choose to get both??

@T4STE 3 года назад

I saw someone on your page post a pic of this snorkel with a KC Pro6 lightbar. How? I hve the snorkel, but I can’t figure how to have both unless the base for this is modified to fit over the light bar bracket.

@israelperez9858 2 года назад

How does the low profile seperate the water if it doesn’t have the same design from the high one ?

@Arrynek01 4 года назад

So, the foam block doesn't go back in, even cut to fit? Or is it in there and you just didn't show it?

@DuzBee 6 месяцев назад

For right hand drive variants - such as Gladiators in the Australian market. Is it true that modification is required due to components in the engine bay being in different positions and fowling in the snorkel??

@timmcphee3045 3 года назад

Has anyone tried this on a right hand drive Gladiator? Some of the stuff in the engine bay is in different places. The airbox looks the same though.

@SpartanWolf-dc4jd 3 года назад

Is there one compatible for eco diesel?

@reefgratos2035 3 года назад

I prefer when things look symmetrical .. do you think you can make a bracket to add small offroad light at the base and do a similar base for the other side (without the chimney) that would accept the light for the other side? In other words, both side will have the same base, passenger side brings cold air to the air filter.. that side will have a spot light at the base. For the driver side, same base with a spot light, and the air will just cool the engine bay. I also prefer a color match snorkel. In a slim shape.. the only thing that bugs me is that the snorkel start rectangular then become cylinder for a coupe of inches and the rectangle again. How bout just rectangle all the way up? Is it compatible with limb risers?

@mattbrew11 4 года назад

Would you guys mind running this on the dyno to show what if any effect it has on air flow and power?

@mwolkonsky 2 года назад

I too would like to see that as I want my exhaust tuned into the good kind of air flow for lack of better mechanical terms. Basically, can one achieve spunkyier with this snorkel and other air related components?

@KoShuFW Год назад

no one would, this is a gimmick for performance, this is not a proper CAI and even proper one is almost undetectable performance gain on the dyno... it is all in your head 🙂, I am assuming loss of aerodynamics with that square pipe on your windshield would negate any possible gain. the best part of this setup is that you can install the high snorkel only when you are going to be in a situation where it is needed.
