Default snorkel for honcho and dingo

alo

any1 know which type of snorkels will fit on the axial scx10 honcho and dingo. im about to order but there are about 5 different types.

safari snorkel for pajero
safari snorkel for land rover
safari snorkel for hilux
safari snorkel for tamiya wrangler jeep
factory universal scale snorkel

Can't answer the snorkel parts but the roof rack is most likely too big to fit on the honcho. Check with some of the guys on the vendor page and I am sure someone can get you a nice custome rack that will fir the honcho perfectly.

I'd pick the one that looks like it would fit the best and then make it work. I'd try the one made for the Land Rover for the Dingo That's the one I am going to use. As far as the Honcho the Hilux one might be close.

i would also go for the hilux one but... im worried that it might be slightly too long/short.. too long would cause the end to protrude out too much above the roof.. too short, the tip wont clear the roof at all.. can't really tell the sizes just by looking at their pics on the website.

hmm..

i wished our LHS have them so i can size them to my honcho before buying..

any1 have seen the snorkels up front to really tell which will fit nicely on the honcho body?

I've been wondering about this for a while.

I had a go at making one out of styrene but it was never going to last (and it didn't).



In the end I gave up because the roof rack I got will most likely foul the top of any snorkel

It's a honcho body with yota decals available in the vendor section from BOWTIE.

Goddamn rc4wd stop sucking out my gold fillings !! 29 dollars plus shipping to the UK plus (possible... likely) import duty !

I want to live in the US where quality scale parts are pleantiful and I can just buy them off the shelf!

sorry bronco, im gonna copy ur design.. hehe..

i tink i can fabricate one from my trex heli landing skids.. paint it black and attach one of those square lite bucket at the top.

usd30 + shipping is a bit ridiculous for a rubber snorkel
