Hi

Since the hose is spiral reinforced i think it will deform rather than collapse and therefore maintain the same overall "passage area". This is what this hose is designed for.

But of course I could be wrong :eek:

This is the ducting hose I am referring to

The PVC will definitely hold up!

I'm not saying it will collapse but I think there's not enough room and it might just restrict airflow.. I could be wrong to but Martins guard was already bulging a bit because of the pvc.
Maybe a but more "makita" heat gun Marty! Hahaha

I'll be pulling off my guard this week too and have a starring session again haha

What's the harm in cutting a section from the inner wheel liner, to allow more of the air duct (re-shaped PVC pipe) to stick through? If you're worried about road detritus degrading or damaging the PVC, why not adhere some rubber to its underside, to act as a protector layer.

Of course, you would need to check how close the upper part of the tyre came to the wheel liner - in full articulation of the axle.

If the Tyre does grab it under full flex while running 33 's it might dislocate it, damage it etc

Yeah - you would need to check how close the tyre came to the current underside of the liner. But even gaining another 10mm of space would be worthwhile, given the restriction.

And is it possible to re-route the yellow pipe/cable to gain further space?

Hi

That yellow wrapped stuff is the crash sensor / airbag cabling so not something to be trifled with !

Hi

While you are staring could you see if there is any chance of ftting an inline precleaner like this one?

I suspect it will be a little to large :(

Thanks
