Well I have it mounted up on mine and will be testing for several days. The new clamp design looks to be the direction we will take. The OE intake tube from the upper air box to the throttle body may have to be replaced with a 3" aluminum air tube (like our CAI). The relocation of the air box tweaks the mounting points of the OE air tube to the radiator support. I was able to bolt it back down in the OE location but not sure you guys would like the effort it took.

this is correct, Alec from EAD has been working on it since the release of the snorkel. he has some moc up ones that work but hes working on getting it to look better with paul from gobi. if you google it you may find the thread its on. idk if i can say this but it is on anther jeep forum. i know other jeep owners have basically fabbed up a glorified close clamp with a brack attached to connect to the snorkel. hope you all can find it and the release for this item is soon.
