Yes indeed...it is the extended intake stack for the deep water
fording kit. The kit also includes lines for the compressors air
intake, and a pressurized air switch that puts positive pressure in
the bell housing to protect the clutch while you're in the drink.
I was lucky enough to find an NOS deep water fording kit still in the
crate on eBay a few months back. I have yet to install it but hope to
soon!
