Default Will a snorkel fit?

I have a roof rack that I really want to keep on my jeep. I also want a snorkel, but I don't know if it will fit. Here are a few pics of setup...Oh and I'll throw a random one in. MOPAR OR NO CAR.

The AEV snorkel will NOT fit. It mounts to the same place as the rack. You might go to a shop and see if someone can weld you a bar that changes that rack on the passenger side to mount the the front and then a snorkle "should" fit....

Captain is right, I have the AEV Snorkel and it mounts to the same spot as that particular rack. I also have the congo cage and it uses one of the side screws and two of the front to mount the right front. I cut that piece off and as soon as they send me the Fing screws that were missing from the parts kit I will install the rack. When I do, I will post pictures.

Default I have the Gobi roof rack and AEV snorkel and they fit really well together.

If your roof rack front support bars do not stick out wider than the metal windshield frame then you should be fine. The AEV and Gobi share the same side bolt holes.

The Gobi rack and AEV snorkel work great on mine, but my friend has a Wild Boar roof rack and he couldn't fit an AEV snorkel with his.

I'm not sure about the Kongo Master, but Gavin should work as well.

Cheers,

Joel
