In part 1 of Exploring the Coral Coast we start in Perth and end at Steven's Camp, Warroora Station. We stop on the way at some interesting places and have a great time at Wooramel River Retreat on Wooramel Station in the artesian baths there. The birdlife along the river is also amazing and Willie gets his birdwatching fix. This was also the shakedown trip for the ranger with the new tray and ...

Installing a T7 snorkel on a Ford Ranger PX III

In this Video I DIY install an eBay T7 snorkel onto the Ranger. I particularly like this snorkel because you do not have to cut a hole into the side panel of your car. The snorkel is installed through the little 'vent' on the side of the ranger in which the indicator sits. Please like and subscribe!

Any idea how heavy the tub weighed?
bi-color bumper is cool! I'm thinking about it for ARB.
Did you have to remove the plastic from the middle of your grill? As my grill won’t fit back in as the plastic part of my bumper where the grill clips in it sits high on the lead side? Any help would be appreciated.
Hi mate, yes I did have to remove some on the plastic in the middle to get it in.
Great video glad your loving the yatch regards Rick the guy that sold you the yatch 🎉
Love it!
Net so kry ek die video...
Thank you for the web site link, but your tray did not appear. What is the cost?
Was about $3500 when I got it
Hey mate do you notice any water getting forced into the snockel when it rains heavily? Im looking at instaling the same one but my main concern is water entering the snockel. Cheers
HI mate, I have had no issues with water getting in in rain.
Hey mate looking to swap my tub for a tray and was wondering does the wiring take much to do or is it pretty simple cheers 👍
Wiring was supper simple to do
Lol, n' boer maak a plan heh?😂😂
how much your tray ?
$3500 when I got it
Hey mate did those tray brackets come in the pack or did you buy seperate
Hey mate, they came in the pack
Awesome video. Just wondering when you changed the clutch end was there any thing else that had to be changed or was it simply the end only.. cheers from Tasmania
Hey mate, thanks appreciate that. Only had to change the clutch end!
Gostei do bumper e gostaria de ter um, como faço, de Chimoio-Moçambique.
I does look good!
What size are those main bolts you took out of the tub
Hey mate, I cant remember off the top of my head, going to say M16
No isolator? Just hard wired is this way safe ?
Hi mate, the winch came with an isolator on the battery cables near the connection to the battery. 100% you need an isolator!
hey mate nice work did you have to get a road worthy certificate or anything??
Hey mate, yes I got it inspected and changed on the rego from "wellbody" to "flattop"
I noticed you had the chrome screws out of the snorkel when you had it on the bench. What bolts did you use to tighten the snorkel to the bracket?
I didnt like to look of the ones supplied with the snorkel so I got some SS ones to replace the chrome
@@4weeksleave Thank you. I guess I'm off to bunnings again. Lol
@@Ranger_Troy 😁
Lekker!!
Hi Willie. I am looking at doing up my old 1st generation Mazda BT50 dual cab ute, 2007 series. I am considering replacing the tub with a flat tray and a gull wing double door canopy. A 1200 mm length canopy should suit our requirements. I was impressed by your video and the Workmate tray. It has been nearly a year now since you uploaded this video. How has the tray performed? Any issues regarding cracked welds, the quality of the lights provided fixing bolts etc? How deep is the under tray drawer provided with the tray? The web sight gives the length and width but not the depth of the drawer. How is the TC Canopy going? Thanks guido
Hey mate, thanks for the kind words. The tray is going really well, no issues with it whatsoever. No cracks or issues withs lights. Tray is about 130mm deep(internally)
TC canopy is great as well
Thanks for that. I,ll definitely aty have a look at that tray.
did the tray come in flat packed
Yes mate it did
Hey legend, I’ve just done my tray in Perth on my own.. What did you do with the fuel flap central locking loom and the roll bar light loom? Since removing the tub my battery keeps going flat 😂
Great done DIYing it yourself as well mate. That's very strange..... I just left mine unplugged, didnt do anything specific to it. I was concerned about all the wire looms 'exposed' a bit more that the tub was hiding before, but I have had no issues with it yet 12 months on. Did you do any other work on the car...? Tail lights and indicators ok???
@@4weeksleave cheers mate! It was good fun, got the tray from MW in O’Connor. Decent tray in my opinion, was able to install the sensors on strut end caps which was handy, and they threw in a reverse camera housing for me. I used the basic lights they gave me, which are working fine for now :)
Hi great video , just wondering if you had the diagram for the tail light wiring as I’m going through the process now thank you 👌
Hi mate, thanks for that. No sorry I don't, it was just a bit of trial and error until I got the right ones.
Any issues with clearance from the winch to bumper/grill? Got a dominator extreme im installing and its all veeeery tight
No issue, but agree veeeeeeerrrry tight fit. I have maybe 5mm between winch and grill, maybe even less. Will be interesting to see how the grill goes after a lot of corregations….🤨
How did you go with the foam gasket, it appears the bolts provided are too short and won’t grab when trying to fit
They are short, but with some effort and force I managed to the the nuts to go on. It would have been nice if the bolts were 5mm longer.
I’ve just fitted the same snorkel on the 2.2l PX1. After watching your video it made it all simple. I did have to trim the pipe from the snorkel, turns out it was a little bit too long. Great video tho mate!
Thanks mate, appreciate that
How are you finding the hinges holding down your tray, are they strong enough? Or have you added some bolts? Reason being that's what my plan is too cause I seen then on line at one place for $450 they where stainless though. But it's a lot cheaper making them Cheers
Hi mate, so far so good. I have had no issues with them. But I have started thinking about..... Some scenario where you get into a bit of trouble out on the track and you want then to be a bit stronger.... For the moment they work really well.
You wouldn't happen to have the bullbar mount specs available for the ironman bar would you mate, looking for a mount bracket very hard to find as it seems & even ironman can't help lol, great vid by the way, cheers
Thanks Mate, appreciate that. I will have to have a look but I dont think so. Ironman🤦
@@4weeksleave your a bloody legend cheers mate
Hi, i just bought a 2021 XL px3 and i want to do it up with flares, bullbar, snokle and more. Does XLT and XL parts can fits eachother?
Hi mate, most part fit all models, mine is the xls and I have had not issues with any part not fitting
Hi mate. I'm looking into getting this tray. Now that you have had it for a while. I was wondering how it's holding up and have you had any problems with it. Cheers
Hi Mate, 100% I have no complaints with my tray. Thinking of getting my father inlays ute one as well now.
This guy is an idiot, working under the wheel arch with no safety stands? Should be deleted, someone will get hurt.
Thanks mate appreciate your feedback
Where did you get the tradie rack feet from?
Hey mate, I got 2 from TCBoxes then realized I needed 4. so just made the other 2 myself
Good vid, done that trip many times. Just bought a river going Van De Stadt 19' and found this while searching.
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it!
Good job.
Thanks mate!
Great video. Looks like you made light work of it. I've got this exact snorkel kit installed by previous owner of my Ranger, just been looking at to try and work out how water resistant it is (for wading and also rain). Doesn't seem to have any dirt/grit/water run-off at the ram head so wondering how well it copes with driving in heavy rain. I've not yet had a chance to open the airbox after heavy rain driving to check for buildup. Question, do you have any idea what that bulb is for in the pipe that lives behind the fender? If it was on the underside of the pipe I'd expect some sort of water/grit catch you could clear out, but as it's above I'm wondering what the point of it is?
I've opened the airbox after drive in some rain (not super heavy rain) and airbox was 100% dry. Regarding that bulb - I have no idea been wondering the same thing.....?🤷♂️
What is bulb you guy talking about? I got the same snorkel l. Just wonder what it is
did you buy those latches at bunnings? and also where did you get the rubber mats you have under your canopy
Yes mate both from Bunnings, works super well
Nothing beats things cooked on the fire, loved the short highlights reel :)
So true, thanks mate
How do they drain the water when it rains?
I don't think there is anything in the snorkel design to drain rain water. It is a very interesting topic and a lot of discussion around it. www.4x4earth.com.au/forum/4x4-tech-talk/24947-stupid-question-snorkels.html www.4x4earth.com.au/forum/fuel-system/7504-diesel-engines-snorkels.html www.4x4earth.com.au/forum/motors/25734-help-me-decide-snorkel-3.html
Let me know your thoughts? It would have to be torrential rain to have any affect and make it into the engine, past the filter and all the heat around...😅 but I'm no expert
Hello mate, nice tray. I have an XLS also and looking to DIY a tray. Just wondering if/how you relocated the reverse camera/sensors? Cheers.
Thanks mate! I took the factory camera out of the Ford emblem, 3D printed a little holder for the camera and fitted that to a bracket positioning the camera to see out the back and the tow ball. I have not yet relocated the sensors..... I am still trying to come up with a good idea to mount them. I dont just want to stick them in to an angle on the bottom or the tray (Dont think it looks great and worried it will get caught up driving out of some steep stuff) Thinking to mount the in the square tubing of the tray below the lights and drawer. Hope that helps....
@@4weeksleave yeah it does cheers!
Hi mate, loved the video and have watched it a dozen times before I have just fitted my own Ironman bar to our 2019 XLS. Yes the instructions leave quite a bit out and there was a couple of head scratching moments. My big question is the indicator/park lamp wiring what colours went to what on the car as the instruction diagram is different colours than the bullbar wiring and I have no idea what colours to pick up on the car, any help would be much appreciated. Oh and I left mine all black but was tempted to colour the bar after I saw yours, great work.
Thanks mate really appreciate it. Having a look if i have some footage or a photo of the wiring, for memory it was a bit trial and error to get it right. Will let you know if I find something
Hey mate looking at the same tray did it come assembled or did it come as a flat pack cheers.
Hey mate, there is not much to it. The 2 frames to bolt to your chassis, the tray itself and the drop sides. So flat packed if you like but the drop side just slide on and you need the frame separate to fit to the chassis. Hope that helps!
Were there the chassis strengthening brackets behind that main winch moutn bracket? Then you had ti drill a 12.5mm hole through chassis? I assume the main winch bracket and the small brackets that run along the sides of the chassis sandwhich the square front of chassis?
Correct and correct, 12.5mm hole to pin everything so it cant move.
@@4weeksleave thankyou so much. Im abkut to tackle mine but the instructions are very vague. The main bolts through winch mount goes through that, the chassis and the small brackets?
@@4weeksleave and just for clarity. The bracket becomes pinned to the chassis by the 12.5mm and the bar itself becomes pinned to the bracket? Also.. Seems in the video you chucked the main bracket on then must have realized the smaller strengthening brackets go in behind it?
@@chrisoliver8427 Yes, the main bolts bolt the winch cradle and all the strengthening brackets to the chassis 👍🏻 One big sandwich of plates
@@chrisoliver8427 And yes the instructions aren’t great! Good luck 🤞
Hi mate, can you provide a link to this snorkel on ebay? I've got a PX1 and I'll look for the equivalent. Lekker! Aymar

Hey mate I’m from the same area, getting a GT fabrication, where did you sell your tub ?
I just put it up on marketplace, for $500, it was gone in 2 days.
Very good info. By the way pls place the wheel under 4x4 for safety after jack-up.
Thanks mate, really appreciate that.
How did you go about reapplying the rubber roof trim over the snorkel roof bracket bolts? Obviously with the bolts, the trim no longer sits flush as it did pre install, it bulges over the bolts. How did you get it to stay down, and was it flat?
Correct, I left it for a couple of days till I thought of a plan. In the end I used my router and trimmed the rubber around where the bolts and the plate sit so it would sit flush. I used the same silicone I sealed the rest of the snorkel with to glue it back down. Have not had an issue with it thus far. Hope that helps!
