When it comes to deep water, the best insurance you can buy for yourself is an Snorkel. The fastest way to do extensive damage to your vehicle while crossing water is to hydro-lock the engine. With snorkel, you no longer have to wonder if the water level is up to your air intake. You know exactly how close the water is to your intake, because you can look out your windshield and see it! True, there are kits you can buy but none are made for the S-10 and the prices they're charging, you would think the kits are made of gold! Jeff decided to take a different approach at this and just make his own. Follow the steps below and you will see how easy this is to make yourself.

This is the mount for the top. It's a loop clip that I screwed into the inside of the door pillar and the fender. Zip ties were used to hook it to the snorkel.
