TJM Snorkel install issues (1 Viewer)

Pulled the airbox to have a look. The hole in the fender is oval shaped. The us airbox uses about 80% in a vaguely triangular shape.

Went to HD and got a few random 3 and 4 inch pipe fittings to experiment with.

Ok. Now I see what the others are doing.
Part 1 fit the snorkel to the wheel well side of fender. Achieve watertight to the sheet metal.
Cut off the wheel,well side of the stock adapter flush with engine bay side of wheel well. Seal to the wheel well metal. Attach air box as normal. Pay attention to achieve watertight fit.

No need for additional pieces as long as the round hole in snorkel and odd hole in airbox pipe are aligned

Great, thanks.
Post few photos of process if possible.

Cut this off at the vertical/attachment portion so it doesn’t protrude into the fender. Make sure the foam surround which contacts the fender is waterproofed.

Was done by myself. Nothing really special, everything as described. Our cars have different type of connection than it was engineered by TJM, but it could be adopted. Thanks, @grinchy for the tips. The only problem was relocation of AIS tubes. It was relocated to under-hood area with using 1" flexible tube. Next step is total removing of this system, before it could be damage (and this is not rare according to Tundra owners experience)..

I’m doing the same thing. Have a tjm clone. The part I mentioned is on the same page as the other, I guess that additional tube in the fender could be inlet from a turbo. It has the same bolt pattern, just less plastic to trim off the fender side

Could you please share where you bought your tjm clone snorkel from? Thank you.
