Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What engine series do your 79 Series airboxes suit?
A: Our airboxes are built for the VDJ (V8) Series, including the 76, 77, 78, and 79 models. They are not suitable for the HDJ (V6) Series.
Q: Does this snorkel fit the 2024+ model 79 Series?
A: No, this snorkel does not directly suit the 2024+ models due to a change in guard design. However, some customers have adapted it with modifications.
Q: Does Radius Fabrications offer a snorkel or airbox for petrol 79 Series models?
A: No, we do not currently fabricate snorkels or airboxes for petrol variants.
Q: Is this snorkel compatible with the Armax Safari snorkel?
A: Our snorkels are not directly compatible with the Armax Safari snorkel due to differences in outlet and inlet sizing. However, with the correct reducer or plumbing setup, it is possible to make them work together. Please note that any additional components needed for compatibility are not supplied in our standard kit.
Installation & Components
Q: How long does installation typically take?
A: Install time is usually 3 to 5 hours for both the snorkel and airbox.
Q: Are all required parts included?
A: Yes, clamps, brackets, joiners, and a cutting template are all supplied for a complete DIY install.
Performance & Functionality
Q: How effective is the snorkel in deep water crossings?
A: Very effective. The snorkel raises the intake above the roofline, helping to prevent water ingress. Proper sealing during installation is essential for best results.
Q: Does the snorkel improve performance?
A: Yes. Customers often report improved throttle response and engine efficiency due to increased airflow.
Q: Do I need to tune the vehicle after install?
A: It’s not strictly necessary. The factory ECU typically adapts to the enhanced airflow. However, performance tuning may offer additional gains.
