Toyota Prado 120 Series Snorkel Install

Scintex Snorkel Installation Instructions for Toyoto Prado 120 Series

After spending some time researching 4WD snorkels on various forums and websites I found instructions for various models are hard to come by and the sellers aren't particularly forthcoming. I ended up going with an unbranded snorkel from the internet. At less than half the price of a Safari kit it came with an installation template but no instructions. The installation took a few hours but in the end it fit like a rubber glove, with all pipes matching up perfectly. Anyway here are the steps and photos...

Step 1: Out of the box

Step 2: Remove the air filter to reveal the inner guard port.

Step 3: Tape the stencil to the outer guard aligning the straight edges.

Step 4:  Drill Pilot Holes

Step 5: Using hole saw, drill port for air pipe as per the stencil. 3" hole saw in this case.

Step 6:   Partially remove the the wheel inner lining to access between the inner and outer guard.

 Step 7: Fit the interconnecting pipe, hose and clamps while re-fitting the air box. Remember to seal all connections with Sikaflex or similar.

Step 8:  Bolt up the snorkel so the upper mount can be located.

Step 9:  Finish securing all bolts, fit the top snorkel air ram and reinstall the inner wheel arch lining.

Perfect fit ;)
