Does anybody know if a 2001 Bravo/Courier
snorkel can be modified to fit a diesel Terrano 2? The angle & guard contour look very close to me.

A guy I know in
Darwin had one done and I am pretty sure the answer is yes. I think you will have to relocate where the duct goes into the air cleaner and maybe use some flexible hose to join the
snorkel to the air cleaner.
Give TJM in Townsville a call as I know they have done a few and can tell you what model number bits they used.
I have been meaning to do it to
mine, but never got around to it (money always spent elsewhere) so let us know how you go.

Thank you, I will give them a call, & then post their answer in this thread. I have seen Hilux ones fitted but the angle is all wrong & they look pretty bad!
You might remember I previously posted that Airflow were keen to use my vehicle to make a pattern, but they were relying on 200 advance orders from Europe, but although Europe had been requesting snorkels for a long time, when the pressure was put on them, they would only advance order 50 units. So unfortunately for us, it wasn't a viable proposition for Airflow to tool up.

I wasn't real impressed with the finish of the Airflow units.

Maybe you weren't ... but beggars can't be choosers!
At least they were considering making one to suit our vehicles! They are a very efficient
snorkel, I agree not the best in the looks dept, Airtec look great but their collector is very inefficient.
BTW, I was speaking to Airflow today & they will be tooling up shortly to make a generic
snorkel that will fit a range of vehicles .. including ours!
I have again offered my vehicle to them, if they need it for any reason.
They say the new
snorkel should be on the market inside 4 months.
I will keep you posted.
