IronManche87 Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Hi all. I'm after what I believe is called the heated intake air duct/hose. It's the one that goes from the exhaust manifold to the air box. I've looked all over and can only find the 2" dia. Metal flex ducting and have tried that before on my old cherokee but was a pain in the @$$ to fit over the 2" dia. fittings as one would imagine.. On my comanche though, it has what appears to be a vinyl duct with metal clamps on both ends making installation MUCH easier. I've already tried wrapping it in duct tape and it worked for a while but now the tape has started melting and it's probably best I just replace the hose this time. Was just hoping someone had one laying around they would want to get rid of by chance. Here's a pic of the one in after. Thanks all!

IronManche87 Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 All I was able to find were one for cjs. There was one round type but it didn't say the diameter of the hose. I'll check!

500 MJ Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I’ll keep an eye out in yards that I get to. What’s your top dollar with shipping for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronManche87 Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Not trying to be a smartazz, but do you really need that heated air hose where you live? Oddly enough living in CA and aside from smog, yes. While I do need it for smog and that's the main reason, I do live in a relatively cooler climate with occasional mornings in the low 20s in the winter. While it's not winter now, it does like to run pretty rough unless I let it idle for almost 10-15 minutes. Again not my main issue/concern but would be nice. Really only NEED it for smog since they are pretty strict in the land of fires and things overpriced. I know if I have to I can battle the metal ducting, but it sure would be nice to have the lock tabs.Sent from my LGMS210 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While obviously I would like to keep the price as low as possible, including shipping I would like to stay around 20 preferably but depending on shipping and condition I'm willing to pay around 30ish. Shipping would be to 93436.Sent from my LGMS210 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronManche87 Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 I'm after a vinyl (I believe) one. Not the metal flex ducting. Here's a couple more pics. Of I can't find one of these I'll end up using the metal one to at least pass smog but would like a newer one of these.
