Correct Snorkle for KJ
I agree with Fouros, it was the installation . I've had an Airflow on mine for years - bought it about 2 years after they released it and when it was the only snork available for the KJ and its been fine.
The Jeep guy who installed it did say that it was a bit of a b*gger to fit - not because of the snork itself, but the layout of the KJ's external and internal bodywork before you get to the airbox - basically the pipe goes through the outer wing and then an "inner wing" before it gets to the airbox; if the installer doesn't get the holes aligned just right you get a restriction. Apparently he also had to allow for a tiny bit of flex between them and also for the fact that the engine bay in the KJ does not have much room to fiddle around. He told me that fitting a snork to a JK, TJ etc was a doddle by comparison - the KJ took over twice as long.
I'd just add that the plastic has not discoloured or deteriorated at all. I have been asked about it many times, and a lot of people have commented on it very favourably.
