No pictures of the cowl area guys, sorry I was in a hurry to get the fender back on. The ducting is angled upwards at the bottom and is mounted a couple inches up off the bottom of the cowl interior so water can't get in there. This is just the first attempt. I'll be redoing it later on with some tubing and making a penetration through the cowl to mount a snorkel head, at least that is the plan.

There's a build thread on here soooooooooooooooooomewhere where a guy made a snorkel that went thru the cowl. Custom airbox, supra AFM. It was pretty trick...

then you need a circuit like this:



it uses a piece of equipment known as a voltage regulator, which keeps the output voltage at a constant 9v, with a varying input (anywhere from ~10 to 24). the part number is 7809, and i can get a better diagram tomorrow (that one is just a stock photo). pretty easy to wire up and hide in where the batteries used to be

if the dashpot is clogged, and/or the return spring is weak, that will act as the return spring. an easy $1 fix (no, it's not mine, but it's my best guess)

here's a better diagram of how to connect the parts


you'll use the 7809 part

As was suggested, I'll throw this in here too.

IFS Passenger-Side Axle Stub Shaft Mod.
Why do that you say?

Because this happens.



The bolt gives you a pulling/prying point on the piece still stuck in the diff, making it possible to remove. It's held in by a flexible c-clip on the end that requires quite a bit of force to pull past the side-gear before it will slide out. Otherwise you'll have to remove the diff cover and force it out from the inside. This mod will turn a job that would normally take about an hour start to finish, into a 5 minute snap-of-a-finger-quick-bang-done-forget-it deal.
