Could make it work if you wanted to add a windshield.

What I did at the cup holder. Cut the bottom off the cup holder so it still snapped into place. Put a 2inch by 2 inch rubber connector halfway thru it. Pipes connect at the top and bottom very snug.

2 inch by 2 inch rubber connector pvc glued into hole. (Pipe connector fits super tight. Prolly don't have to glue) used flat black for paint. 2 inch pipe used all the way around

That's pretty clean. I've never messed with that pipe I'm curious if it would possibly bend if you were to heat it up.

Yep we did one on my buddies Polaris. Was easy! use a heat gun takes a while but i looks smooth and clean!!!

Has anyone come up with a way to run the snorkel in the back coming up above the air box ? I haven't snorkeld anything in years but I always preferred for the intake to be in the middle of the bike incase just 1 side drops off into the deep .

People have said from what I hear they have spent hours trying to snorkel it and get the bed to operate . If you never use your bed again yes you can snorkel straight from the back. My buddy did his

PSC Vent Bellow

$9 each x 3 $27 _ $33 Expidited Shipping = $60 total.
Says you can get them 2nd day air for $33

US $32.85 / United States / Expedited Shipping (UPS 2nd Day Air®) /Estimated within 3 business days

Jackal would you mind posting pictures of exactly where each vent line is. I see the fuel vent line tho.

I want to be clear on where the front diff, rear diff, sub trans, shift linkage I guess it's called and the radiator fan vent lines are. Also is there anything else I need to worry about like the radiator fluid overfill line? Can water come back up there and get inside?

 

[Scooterchris]

Or anyone for that could help me. It's much appreciated.

Yes i have. Works great good sir. Gives the intake a little meaner sound

Just FYI - I ordered 3 from PSC, but have a concern with them being so stiff. At 70 degrees, they are really pretty rigid. I have used the arctic cat ones before and from my memory, they were much more flexible. I'll be watching to see if anyone has any issues from the PSC bellows not expanding/contracting enough before I put them on mine.

Since you mentioned this I do have a commentary on using these on the sub-transmission barb. I had run mine about 20 miles to get it all warmed up to change the oil, the heat that built up pressure by sealing it off with the bellow was enough to make the dipstick pop up a full 6 inches as I unscrewed it while the oil was hot (the engine was not running). I was surprised at this. Both differentials were fine as I immediately loosened the inspection caps to listed for air pressure being released. That being said I may seek an alternative by running a longer hose up the back of the seat. I don't believe it is not enough pressure to have seal issues but I was only riding in 50 degree weather for 30 minutes. An all day run in 90 degree heat may build up a bit more pressure than desired.

Thanks for that info.

This is great information. Thank you for posting this, I will also have to inspect this and may end up modifying just as you described.

I wondered about that when I first read about someone using the bellows. But I've never snorkeled anything so kept my mouth shut. The bellows will expand to absorb the pressure, but the pressure is still there. Just my opinion, but I think I'll run longer lines and filter it at the top.

which route did ya take

I disagree. It was 80 degrees this past Saturday here in Florida. About mid day I shut my machine down to check the sub trans bellow. I did not hear any pressure being released or my dipstick didn't shoot up. It was fine. Great news is it worked. No water got it
