Jeep Driver Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Bobby, with his vacuum troubles, got me energized to get started with mine. Shorty after I got the truck I found an AMC plastic cover at the PnP and installed it. The Ultra Black RVT was no match for a plastic cover. Image Not Found I found this at the PnP off a 91 Wrangler, cleaned up real nice. Image Not Found After 60K miles, she's still clean inside. Image Not Found I used brake line to make up new vacuum line. Image Not Found And a new molded hose on the breather side to the plenum. Image Not Found Next will be eliminating the EGR........to be continued. Image Not Found
zackcj7 Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 From the little I can see in the pics that intake tube doesn't look stock. What are you using for the intake?
Jeep Driver Posted June 15, 2014 Author Posted June 15, 2014 An ABS CAI that I have to remake, I put this together before I installed the ZJ PS pump. Also, I'm getting rid of the tubes that go into it, I'll have to rethink where the charcoal canister tube will go. Image Not Found
Comanchemodder Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 I complement you on your use of socket head cap screws. Make is look really clean.
88whitemanche Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Wow! That's how my plastic cover was crumbling to....if anyone else does this upgrade...it's better to use the molded rubber valve cover gasket from a 1998 Dodge Dakota with the 2.5 4cyl.... Part # vs50502r.... About $20

Part # vs50502r.... About $20 I did get a rubber gasket. My VC has lugs that the rubber did not go around. I went to the Dodge dealer yesterday and there was no gasket for it, note on parts list stated RTV only.
88whitemanche Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 Oh ok.... I didn't mean to undermine your write-up. I was just stating what has worked for me and others....
54bobby Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 looks real good, now my inspiring you has inspired me too.
mnkyboy Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I just upgraded mine to a 95 wrangler cover, now I don't have to worry about blowing my fill cap off while I'm out smoking 4.0ls.
