This post might be of interest to people looking at air flow via RAIs and use of a Nugget kit.

Sorry to hijack - is this the snorkel you are referring too, or a different model? https://www.nakatanenga.de/en/vehicle-equi...r-defender What 'kit' would be needed to enable wading? Thanks Mark |

I suspect the 'kit' that they refer to is extended axle and gearbox breathers but the snorkel that I meant is the SN4:

Looking at some on ebay there's some around the fifty quid mark, are they any good? I'm not intending doing anything to deep but would like something watertight. I take it I would need a different air filter and box, any suggestions on this.
I've got the breather kit from Fourby 4x4 for axles gearbox and timing case all as a kit. |

I got my mushroom style from the army surplus place that does loads of different stuff. I think its Blanchards?!?!? £60 and seems good quality. I do need to swap the screws for SS though as the supplied ones are starting to rust. Dead easy to fit too btw.

The metal £50-£60 ones are ok for the money, although the coating often isn't up to much, especially inside the main tube. Out of the box, I'd call them water resistant. To make them fully sealed requires a bit of work, especially where they bolt onto the wing. Beyond that though, a fully sealed system requires work to the existing pipework and air filter box.
As an aside, I wouldn't fit one to a Puma though as they're far too restrictive. Darren 110 USW BUILD THREAD - EXPEDITION TRAILER - 200tdi 90 BUILD THREAD - SANKEY TRAILER - IG@landroveranorak "You came in that thing? You're braver than I thought!" - Princess Leia |

Hi all,
So looking through all the emails and info, it turns out it's better not fitting a RAI due to reduced air to the filter. Also a great difference on costs from one RAI to another. £60 upwards and mid price from Raptor £120 some metal some plastic. After fitting the breathers, then what's best? Dave W |
