I am in the process of looking to buy an 80 series. I found one with low miles and in a color I like (no lockers though), but it has a snorkel. I don't need a snorkel on a truck that I'm going to use as a daily driver and, in my view, I'd look a little silly driving around with the snorkel (also, I am not particularly fond of the look, even though I know it is a popular modification). How hard is it to remove the snorkel? Will it require any under-hood plumbing work (e.g., would I have to relocate the airbox or something)? Is there anyone who makes a cheap cover for the holes in the fender or would I be stuck with a big body shop bill?
The seller lives an hour or so from me so I'd like to know how hard it is to remove a snorkel before I drive down there to look at the truck.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
