Anybody snorkel their own 800? If so how difficult was it and can it be done without shaving the bed? Thanks

It is possible although I dont know from experiance because I cut a 8x11 1/4 hole in mine but I think Lbr runs them though the bottom of the cage by the seatbelt mounts another member jimsharp? also made brackets to relocate the bed back an inch or two as far as easy goes grab some cold ones and some buddies and get to engineering

Yeah I don't know if you have enough room with that big motor to snorkel like mine. But I ran all 3 up through the rear seat frame and 2" risers fit between bed rail and seat back.

Thanks for the input guys. Once the weather gets right I'm gonna start wrenching on it and see what I come up with. Gonna make me some doors too

I cut the bed on my 500. Had I known that I would be selling it after a year and a half, I would have looked at options that were easier to return to stock. But notching the bed will probably be the easiest way to do an 800.

Good luck I have half doors in the works right now also

lemme know if this helps

 

[Rum Runner]

this is a hard one

 

[Rum Runner]

thhe intake boot u will have to heat up to stretch it over the 2" pvc but it will also the belt intake runs over the exhaust so make sure shes zip tied good it wont melt trust me ive got a lot of housr on this snorkel

This is great! Thanks for the help! I have some 2 inch flex pipe I may try out. But this will definitely help me a ton! Did you have any trouble sealing your air box? Or did u just put some silicone on it?

 

[Rum Runner]

Id stay away from flex pipe mine is all hard pipe.. an i didnt do anything to the air box its sealed up good from the factory but there is a hose going into a small 90 think its the crank case vent i unsrewed that an put some gasket maker on the threads an screwed it back in

 

[Rum Runner]

Ur goin use alot of 90s an 45s think i got 15 of each an just took back what i didnt need

 

[Rum Runner]

Dont forget to run the vent line for the gas tank .. so u should have front diff rear diff an gas tank vents ran up i ran the rear diff an the gas tank vent between the snorkels an the front diff up the a piller of the cage

 

[littlebigrancher]

Well you got real lucky with the airbox. There's no way in hell I'd ever attempt to go deep with no silicone on airbox.
