BizarroStormy Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 So I mangled my liquid line (between dryer and expansion valve) when I replaced my engine a couple years ago and it won't hold pressure anymore. I am looking for a replacement but I am coming up empty. Jeep air has been out of stock every time I check. https://jeepair.com/collections/liquid-lines/products/cherokee-liquid-line-drier-to-evaporator I think the part number is 56002731, anyone know where I can get one?
Limeyjeeper Posted July 9, 2024 Posted July 9, 2024 Very hard to find. Probably need to get one made or go to a junkyard. You can ditch the brass valve which does absolutely nothing and then you have a more standard fitting on the drier. Both ends would then be No 6 fittings.
BizarroStormy Posted July 9, 2024 Author Posted July 9, 2024 Anyone have a part number or link to the replacement double no 6 hose that can replace the brass valve on the dryer?
BizarroStormy Posted July 9, 2024 Author Posted July 9, 2024 Think this would work? https://www.summitracing.com/parts/vta-12524-vcl
BizarroStormy Posted July 26, 2024 Author Posted July 26, 2024 That hard line did not work out, had to use part of the brass valve for it to fit at all and it didn't really want to go in. Don't think it is actually a No 6 fitting just very close. Getting the bend right was also basically impossible. I think I found a solution though https://jeepair.com/products/1987-1990-cherokee-4-0l-quick-disconnect-eliminator-kit?variant=41425272602821 is a kit specifically designed to replace this weird line. I should be getting it in the mail this weekend.
BizarroStormy Posted July 29, 2024 Author Posted July 29, 2024 That kit worked great, don't have the impossible to find hose anymore. The new dryer kind of points the line that goes to the condenser towards the battery tray. So there was a minor interference there but I was able to massage it into place.
