Is it easy to remove the AEV snorkel?
I am looking at putting the AEV snorkel and heat reduction hood on my unlimited and wanted to see if anyone that has one or has experience with the AEV knows if I can take it on and off easily? I am not sure I want to run the snorkel all the time and figured with the AEV hood, I could run the mesh grate over the side cutout when I wasn't wheeling in water.

Shouldnt be too hard, it's pretty easy bolt on.
You won't be able to waterproof the airbox like your supposed to in the instructions, it requires running a silicon bead around the intake of the airbox. |
Not really...
If you install the snorkel according to the AEV directions the snorkel and air box will be siliconed together as one piece. if you wanted to buy a second air box you could keep one stock and make the switch very easily.

99% of the silicone out there is absolute crap and requires a primer for proper adhesion.... Most likely you will be able to easily just peel off the silicone and separate the snorkel from the air box.. Removing it is do-able and is less of a chore than to say, fold the windshield.. But it's not something I would want to do too often. Maybe it you pull it for the winter months like when you pull the soft top...
good luck with your decision |
