Welcome nice truck, saw one just like it at Nene or is that the one. I got a P and P roll cage similar to yours and need a snorkel, does your perform well.

Snorkel looks like the standard Rover version that I have fitted.
Does the job fine but causes draughty havoc with the airflow driving with the window open.
Tried fitting window deflectors but no improvement.

Thanks Laurie, which engine no you have in your truck, have you noticed any change in performance since you had the snorkel fitted.

Mine's a TD5 and I had the snorkel fitted when I bought it, so can't compare.
(List price, including fitting was £375 but got it included in the price)

Gearbox chatter shouldnt come from the 2 inch lift, its a problem occuring for maney people without a lift!

Vibration is caused by the 2 inch lift but can be solved by fitting different props etc ...
