PIKE Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 I saw a picture on this sight a few weeks ago of a Comanche enjine bay and it had a stock oem recovery bottle in between the fender and the stock air cleaner assembly. Any body know what year and engine size it was? The picture was from a truck some one found at a junk yard. That person also asked if any one wanted him to pull parts from it for them. Wish I would have saved it.

PIKE Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 Thats it!!!!!!! :bowdown: Thanks, any idea what year that is? I like the looks of that overflow tank. :cheers:
maddzz1 Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 That looks like something that was added in. I don't think it was factory
Motion Offroad Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 The 2.5L XJ/MJ had the overflow bottle in that location. It's a factory bottle.
Eagle Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 Motion is correct. That's from an EARLY 4-cylinder, which has a narrower air box than the 4.0L. That bottle will NOT fir a 4.0L unless you have removed the stock air box and are running a cone intake.
PIKE Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 I am running a cone filter. So is that maybe a 1984? Man I want one of those now!!!!!! What do you think the chance of finding a part number would be?? :typing: :cheers:
Eagle Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 That one is fuel injected, so it's probably an '86 or maybe an '87. Can't be an '88 with that hood prop.

Motion Offroad Posted August 13, 2008 Posted August 13, 2008 That one is fuel injected, so it's probably an '86 or maybe an '87. Can't be an '88 with that hood prop. We have a 4 banger '88 MJ and a 4 banger '89 XJ sitting here and both have that coolant bottle... I know you based that statement on the photo above, but just stating that they were used in several years/models.

I know you based that statement on the photo above, but just stating that they were used in several years/models. Hmmm ... maybe they used that air box through 1990, then, and standardized when they switched over to the Chysler ignition/injection in '91. My bad. Nonetheless, that hood prop pegs the vehicle in the photo as an 86 or 87.
PIKE Posted August 13, 2008 Author Posted August 13, 2008 I checked the part number at an online Jeep dealer and it shows it fits a 2.5 1984-1990. What has alwas thrown me off though is that if you search for an early 2.5 coolant bottle there is always a picture of the 4.0 bottle that sits up on the passenger fire wall. Thanks again everyone. :wrench:
