4x4 Snorkels

Protect your engine, and get the best performance and efficiency out of your vehicle with a 4x4 snorkel

A 4x4 snorkel is an essential add-on to any 4WD and if you're not using one it's very possible that you're causing your vehicles engine unnecessary stress which you'll end up paying for later.

A snorkel on your 4x4 is at it's most useful when your vehicle is being driven off road, but that doesn't mean it doesn't help with normal road driving too. One of a snorkels primary purposes is to ensure that the air being fed into your engine has as little dust, dirt and grit as possible. Traditionally the air your engine breathes comes from the engine bay. Regardless of whether you're traveling on a dirt road or not, the air under your bonnet is hot, and contains plenty of small debris from the road beneath, such as sand, dust, dirt, oil and more. A 4×4 snorkel is designed to replace that low air feed, with a feed from higher up, usually around the roof level of your vehicle. The air at this elevated level is much cleaner and cooler, and therefore a much healthier source for your motor.

Another task of the 4WD snorkel is ensuring your motor doesn't drown during it's next river crossing. It only takes a small amount of water to kill a motor, so make sure your engine can breath during your next river crossing.

Outside of the above a snorkel will also help with your fuel economy, and provide your vehicle with the aesthetic edge it needs to look its best.

We have an extensive range of 4x4 snorkels for your 4WD. This includes brands such as the excellent Safari 4x4, an industry leading manufacturer of high-quality snorkels and many other 4WD accessories, as well as the hand crafted stainless steel 4x4 snorkels from Meredith Metalworks. Both brands are proudly made in Australia and include their full warranties and support.

Use the filters to your left to find the perfect snorkel for your vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a 4x4 snorkel actually do?

A snorkel relocates your engine's air intake from the engine bay to roof level. Air at that height is cooler and carries far less dust, sand and grit than the air under your bonnet, so your engine breathes cleaner air and your filter stays serviceable for longer. It also raises the intake point well above bonnet height, which helps keep water out of the engine during creek and river crossings.

Is a snorkel worth it if I don't do water crossings?

For most owners the everyday benefit is dust and heat, not water. On corrugated dirt roads the engine bay fills with fine dust that ends up in your airbox, and the air under the bonnet is always hot. A roof-level intake draws cleaner, cooler air, which is generally better for engine health and can help with fuel economy over time, even if your 4WD never sees a river.

What's the difference between poly and stainless steel snorkels?

Our range includes both. Poly snorkels, such as those from Safari 4x4, are made from UV-stabilised polyethylene, moulded to follow the vehicle's panel lines, and typically handle scrub and branch strikes without denting. Stainless steel snorkels, like the hand crafted units from Meredith Metalworks, offer a premium finish and rigid construction. In most cases the choice comes down to budget and the look you're after rather than a difference in function.

Will a snorkel increase my vehicle's factory wading depth?

No. A snorkel raises the engine's air intake point, which protects the engine from ingesting water, but it doesn't increase the vehicle manufacturer's stated wading depth. Diff and gearbox breathers, alternators and electronics are still exposed at factory depth limits, so treat the factory figure as your guide even with a snorkel fitted.

Does fitting a snorkel involve cutting into my guard?

In most cases, yes. Vehicle-specific snorkels typically require a large hole cut in the front guard plus smaller mounting holes, and some vehicles need minor trimming of the inner guard liner. Kits generally include a template and mounting hardware, and the cut is concealed by the snorkel body once fitted. Because the cutting is permanent, we recommend professional fitment if you're not confident with the process, and refer to the installation guide for your specific vehicle before starting.

Will a snorkel give me more power or better fuel economy?

A snorkel on its own isn't a performance modification, but feeding the engine cooler, denser and cleaner air is designed to help it run at its best, and it can support fuel economy, particularly in dusty conditions where a clogging filter would otherwise restrict airflow. If you're chasing higher airflow for a tuned or higher-output engine, the Safari ARMAX range is designed with larger internal dimensions for exactly that purpose.

How do I know which snorkel fits my 4WD?

Snorkels are vehicle-specific, shaped to suit a particular make, model and generation, so a snorkel designed for a Hilux N70 isn't interchangeable with an N80. Use the make and model filters on this page to narrow the range to your vehicle, then check the generation or year range on the product page against your build plate before ordering. If you're unsure which generation you have, we're happy to help confirm the right fit before you buy.

Are these snorkels made in Australia and covered by warranty?

Safari 4x4 and Meredith Metalworks snorkels in our range are proudly Australian made and come backed by their manufacturers' full warranties and support. We also stock AEV and VRS snorkels for selected vehicles. If you want local manufacturing specifically, use the brand filter on this page to shop Safari 4x4 or Meredith Metalworks directly.
