What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[TheDocAUS]

SEALED SNORKEL
Just paid for the final work on Wally, being:

1. install the diff breather kit;
2. add rear airbags for towing the van (Poly Air, the ones also used on the van); and
3. bolt on a sealed snorkel. It is a bolt on job, no cutting. GrenX's final development of the diesel airbox is now complete. Rohan confirmed to me last Friday at the 4WD and Adventure Show.

Have some DIY things to do, but GrenX will do the final work. I need to book the trip to Melbourne. I organized the final work with GrenX at the Sydney 4WD and Adventure show last Friday.

The exterior will be very OEM looking (that is the AU blinker fitted, different to the rest of the world):

Watching the Grenadiers do water crossings up at Cape York in the Canny Outdoor video was the final prompt. The water crossing was deep enough that one unseen pothole and whoosh, as the water gets sucked into the motor.

The old GU Patrol had a sealed snorkel and I needed it one day, crossing the Gascoyne River to reach Kennedy Ranges National Park.

I am thinking of getting the GrenX ally snorkel, did you consider getting it done at SLRV ?

GrenX make it. It is about the same distance for me if I go to GrenX or EHQ (SLRV). So I went to the one who has installed the most snorkels.

Oh man. Might need to keep my eyes open for one

Check with some dealers as they may have some sitting around on display

Very nice, I'm planning to make the same change ;-).
Did you use the original Stedi brackets for mounting?

How are your Thule bars, do you have 2 or more. What size did you use for the foot and how much clearance is there?
When I got my Grenadier it came with 2 Thule bars but not the attachment. I wasn't sure about using them on the gutters, what are your thoughts?

Yes original and work fine. Was a set completely with right plugs. Not cheap but easy and no additional work needed

I have 2 Thule and 2 origin Ineos. Ineos is much more better and massive. I had the Thule only, because the Rhino arrived 6 months later than the Grenny. The Thule works, but feeling with the gutters is better at the Rhino. I wouldn’t waste the Thule so I used additional for loading boxes on the roof. The RTT is on the Rhino. Thule same clearance as Rhino
