Hey guys I was looking at the Snorkle kits for my Yj, and when i was at the truck show this weekend i saw plenty of Tjs with the kit on but they were complaining that the way the kit runs for arb that you can not remove the doors with out unbolting the snorkel. I wanted to know if any one had heard of this and if it was the same on a YJ. and if ti hold any truth or any ways to fix it ANy input would be great thanks ONLY IN A ORANGE YJ

i have heard the same thing about TJ's alot. but there is a solution. you have to mount the snorkle as far forward as possible on the windshield. it still makes it harder to remove the doors, but its doable.
with that said i have no idea about YJ's, but a good alternative to a full on snorkle is to reroute your intake to breath from the cowl vent. i did it and love it.

That works for Tj's cause you have all that space up under the cowl. On Yj's bad Idea. the area is not nearly as large and you are almost guarenteed to get water of mud in there the first time you go off road, or it rains. To answer the snorkle question, The YJ snorkle is different than the Tj, fo one, it is on the drivers side and not the pass. I have not heard that the doors are hard to take off with a YJ snorkle. if they are, nothing a 6 pack and some courage can't fix!

if the door wont go all the way up without hitting the snorkel, i have heard of ppl cutting the door bolts down a bit so you don't have to lift it as high to get the door out. just take a little off, basically just the part that sticks below the hinge. I have only heard of this problem on TJ's though...
