It's something for the 3.7L Petrol, then it's blurry from there for me...
If it's what I think it is, I'll be needing one of those for when I go to Alaska in the summertime...lots of water that time of year I may want to cross...

Not sure if it is the Safari Snorkel or another brand from outside the US, but there are some guys back East that I've seen with a snorkel on their KJ. Definiely would love to see one up close though, so interested in your build of it as I may care to join in on it.

Safari Snorkel SS1130HF install write up
Well, the long awaited SS1130HF finally showed up at our shop. Designed for the Jeep KJ Cherokee with the 3.7L Down Under. I was a bit unsure of the fitment due to differences in the OZ spec and US spec KJ's. What better way to test it out than to drill some huge holes in my wife's Jeep!?
Note: If you are planning on installing a SS1130HF on your KJ, please note that at this time the Radio Antenna will need to modified, and you will be removing the entire front passenger fender, sliders and certain front bumpers may need to be removed to remove the front fender.
Installation Time: aprox 6 hours.
Step 1: Remove the fender flare. You'll need extra retaining clips to replace ones that may have broken during removal.
Step 2: Remove the air cleaner assembly, and the inlet duct can be thrown out per the directions.
Step 3: Align the outer fender templates and mark the holes.
Step 4: Drill holes marked, de burr and use touch up paint to prevent rust.
Step 5: Remove fender panel.
Step 6: Align inner fender template and mark.
Step 7: Drill holes marked, de burr and use touch up paint to prevent rust.
Step 8: Align engine bay template and mark.
Step 9: Drill holes marked, de burr and use touch up paint to prevent rust.
Step 10: Reinstall fender panel. We marked the washers and re aligned to the marks.
Step 11: Install snorkel body. Apply loctite to the studs, and and install upper mounting plate.
Note: This is the difference in the US Spec and OZ Spec KJ's. The antenna location is in the way of the snorkel. The antenna can either be relocated or bent, we bent ours, and secured with a zip tie.
Step 12: Remove A-pilar molding and trim according to the instructions. Drill, de burr, and install pop rivets.
Step 13: Measure 3.3" up and .35" in from the third rib and mark... Drill with 92mm hole saw, and remove all the ribs from the air intake. Install air intake connector with silicone and pop rivet through holes.
Step 14: Plug OEM intake with plate provided, and silicone drain holes on bottom of factory air box.
Step 15: Install air box and connect the intake connector with hose clamp.
Step 15: Se note in step 11.
Step 16: Re-install fender flares, and enjoy.
