After flattening the battery in my wife's RRC with our fridge on the beach in Mexico, we decided we really need a house battery. The obvious place to put it is in the left front corner, so I have relocated the power steering reservoir and the cruise control pump. The only issue is the air cleaner horn. It sits a little less than 6 inches above the bottom of the battery box, and a group 34 battery is 7.9 inches high. Every photo I have found shows this problem solved by adding a snorkel, but I have yet to convince my wife on this. I don't think I can raise the whole assembly without fouling the hood. So that leaves cutting the horn off, removing the whole horn assembly, or cutting the horn off and reconnecting it with some flexible tubing.
Any thoughts?
