Mudski GU Build Thread

Very very nice. Keen to see how this works out for ya. If I didn't need to do my clutch and my skull surgery I think this would have been the next thing on my car.
I may be keen on your cobra lid to try it i think though Matty said they aren't that good. But has to be an improvement over standard .

Correct. The box is the biggest problem.

Part one of three is here. The Fatz box is on board for delivery today. Just trying to find a 4inch comp housing to suit. Harder than I anticipated. Need to get a ram head too. Radius wanted $80 for a Donaldson branded one. Can get them local for nearly half that. I wonder is Safari do a 4inch one. Their look more streamlined I think, but I know they might be a bit exy of $$$.

Sober. lol

Safari do them, the new model Landcruisers have 4" snorkels.
I think the Donaldson looks better.

My mate had a air hacksaw and that's what we used, either that or some tin snips. Mines a donaldson which I bought off ebay for $71.50 from memory, don't think Safari do a 4" ram head, you can probably get Trade pricing.

I'll probably just go with the Donaldson type maybe. I have a jigsaw, with metal cutting blades??

Sober. lol

Shut up you! I'm not always pissed. Haven't been for two weeks. Lol.

Use a nibbler Marky, much easier and safer...

I'm think to maybe even get a 4-3 adapter for the box to intake pipe fitment, put the snorkel and box in, and then do the rest when I get the comp housing.
