THE BENEFITS OF INSTALLING A 4WD SNORKEL

Love spending off-time tackling rugged terrain in Australia’s Great Outdoors? A 4WD snorkel is necessary to protect your vehicle’s engine from dust, debris, water and other unwanted contaminants. Below, we’ve highlighted some major benefits of installing a snorkel 4x4 system!

Water crossing capability 

When crossing rivers, streams, or other water bodies, a snorkel raises the engine's air intake point to draw in cleaner air from a higher position. This prevents water from entering the engine, reducing the risk of hydro lock, which can cause engine damage.

Raised air intake & improved engine performance

Off-road environments are usually dusty, sandy, or muddy. These elements can clog the standard air intake system, reducing engine performance and potential damage. A snorkel relocates the air intake point away from the dust cloud generated by the vehicle, helping to maintain a cleaner and more efficient airflow, protecting the engine from harmful debris and extending its lifespan.

The higher intake point also draws in cooler air, reducing the temperature of the air entering the engine. Cooler air is denser, improving combustion efficiency and potentially enhancing engine performance.

Plus, with a snorkel installed, the engine can breathe more freely and efficiently. The improved airflow allows the engine to operate optimally, enhancing horsepower, torque, and fuel efficiency. This can be especially handy when navigating challenging off-road terrain or towing heavy loads.

Versatility and adaptability

Snorkels can be fitted to almost any 4WD vehicle. Snorkel kits are available for various makes and models, whether you own a truck, SUV, or utility vehicle. We stock 4x4 snorkels specifically designed for: 

• Ford, e.g. Ford Ranger, Raptor & Everest
• Holden, e.g. Holden Rodeo & Colorado
• Isuzu, e.g. Isuzu DMAX & MU-X
• Jeep, e.g. Jeep Wrangler
• Land Rover, e.g. Land Rover Defender & Discovery
• Mazda, e.g. Mazda BT50
• Mitsubishi, e.g. Mitsubishi Triton & Mitsubishi Pajero 
• Nissan, e.g. Nissan Patrol & Navara
• Toyota, e.g. Toyota Hilux, Prado & Landcruiser
• Volkswagen, e.g. Volkswagen Amarok.

This adaptability ensures that regardless of your vehicle, you can benefit from the added protection and improved performance that a snorkel provides.

Off-road confidence

Installing a 4WD snorkel instils confidence when venturing off the beaten path. Knowing that your engine is better protected from water, dust, and debris allows you to tackle challenging terrains with peace of mind. Whether you're exploring muddy trails, river crossings, or driving through dusty desert tracks, a snorkel provides an added layer of reliability and readiness.

FAQS ABOUT 4WD SNORKELS

• Do I need a snorkel for my 4WD?
  
  If you often find yourself veering off the beaten track for off-road adventures, we highly recommend getting a snorkel installed. A snorkel protects your engine and enhances performance in challenging conditions, like water crossings and dusty or sandy environments.
   

• Do snorkels help with fuel economy?
  
  Installing a snorkel doesn’t have a direct impact on fuel economy, but there are certain scenarios where a snorkel can indirectly contribute to improved fuel efficiency, e.g. a snorkel can reduce air restriction in the engine’s air intake system, leading to better combustion and in turn, improved fuel efficiency.
   

• Can I install a snorkel, or do I need professional installation?
  
  Installing a snorkel generally requires some technical knowledge and expertise, especially if you need to make precision cutting of the vehicle’s body to install the snorkel. Installing one yourself is possible if you have the right tools and skills, but we recommend booking your installation with the team at Off Road Central! Remember, we have a 9-hoist fitment centre adjacent to our showroom to take care of sales and installation in one go.
   

• What snorkel brands do you stock?
  
  We stock a number of brands, including Stainless Snorkels, Tanami Snorkels, Raptor Snorkels, and more. Browse through our collections online.
   

• How are snorkels installed?
  
  DIY vehicle modifications can affect features, warranties and insurance. We recommend contacting the team at Off Road Central for professional installation on-site in Rothwell.
