    Nice picture. Do you think that the avid snorkel is better than a OGZ? It is the same for the look, no?

    The biggest difference is the mounting hardware around the hole in the fender. The OGZ has threaded pop rivets that attach to the sheet metal. Avid bolts through to the other side. Not sure if either is better. They are about the same in quality and function.

    I don't see a picture or movie with a Jeep Renegade in a deep wather. Do you Know?

    Holy crap you are lucky!!! I wouldn't've had the balls to do that. The air intake is just about 18-19 off the road without a lift. I've seen a trailhawk seize the engine in water just above the bumper. Of course this guy was creeping through, you look like you're plowing through.
    I just bought an Avid desert snorkel, should be here by 4/24. I'll have the time to install it 2nd week of May. Can't wait.

    Was going maybe 5 or 6 mph, one of the faster crossings to be honest. Been through that at least a dozen times with the club I roll with but that was definitely the deepest it had been. Funny part is most of the lifted wranglers in the group take the bridge off an earlier fork in the trail.
