Rugged Ridge Snorkel Install (Lot of Pics)

Finished up the install with only one issue. Im running bushwacker flats and now the liner does not sit flush because the snorkel body is pushing it outwards. Snorkel is in as far as it can go. Anyone else have this problem? Not too big of a deal I just used a couple tie wraps to hold it in place at the bottom rear of the wheelwell.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but the OP looks very knowledgeable re: the install. I just installed Evo Rock Skins ... and it would be a total PITA to remove/re-install the front portion that connects to the fender.
Is it at all possible to do this without removing the fender? If the snorkel is very modular, I think it might be possible to slide the thin vertical portion up behind the fender and then connect everything else to it. Please let me know!

I agree, unfortunately the fender does have to be removed....there's no way way around it. Trust me, I tried!
I must admit, it's well worth the time it takes to install!

Just installed the low mount but now I'm nervous that I will go through a puddle on the road at speed and it will force water up the low mount do you think that will happen?
