I am trying to make a snorkel for my 94 tracker.
It has an Intake, even when I drive it in road the filter gets wet.

I looked every where for Humidifier box but hopeless.

I saw these article and I send a massage to that guy but didn't get any answer back. http://www.bc4x4.com/tech/2005/snorkel/ I want something like that :rolleyes:

anybody knows where can I find one Humidifier box ?

and is it better if I use stainless steel pipe or regular ones?

anyhelp would be great

The link you gave lists all the parts required; very easy. You can't just "find one" unless you want a Safari Snorkel. You will need to compile the parts and make it yourself, thus the term "home made". As for stainless vs regular pipe; I don't know of anybody running stainless, so regular must be fine.

I know all the parts are in that link, thats why I post it so you guys know what I mean.

the Humidifier box is the one that I put the filter in(and thats the part I am looking for not the complete sys) i went to NSOR and few other places nobody has one.

if I find that part I can make the rest (MYSELF)

dude i think that humidifier is one of the ones you plug in at home to humidify your room when its dry , good luck finding one hit the second hand stores or maybe hit princess auto and see what you can find , all you need is something to protect your air filter .

The humidifier box is not an automotive part, it is a household product. London Drugs, Wal-Mart etc. Or garage sales or swap meets, when they're around.
Make sure you tell them what it is for; should make for a good facial expresion. http://www3.telus.net/cbradley/Smileys/thumbs_up_1.gif
