layback209 Posted February 18, 2008 Posted February 18, 2008 the parts from this mod are what I'm after: Look here: http://www.madxj.com/ under "ENGINE" then "'93 XJ to '00 XJ CCV Upgrade". This mod allows the early HOs to breathe much better. Eliminated all blowby I had in my old 91 engine. I live in alberta canada; now the thing that is bugging me is the fact that the part list in here only cost 30$ us. I tryed to get the equivent here from a dealership and its going to run me 140$????? School costs have got my wallet pretty tight. Any ideas on how to gets the parts at a better price would be appreciated. Cheers, Derek
Eagle Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 Those may be old prices. Anyhoo ... try NAPA, if you have them in Canada. The replacement CCV hoses/tubes for the '88 vintage XJs and MJs cost literally half at NAPA what they would cost me at a dealership, and I get shop pricing.
mvusse Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 Might give Carquest a shot too, if there's one in your area. I know there are some in Canada, but don't know how widespread they are.
layback209 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Posted February 19, 2008 Yep have NAPA here but they cost the same as the dealership well 90% of the time. Doesn't hurt to check. Mabey i'll luck out and Canadian Tire :Canadaflag: will have some chineese made trash lol.
mvusse Posted February 19, 2008 Posted February 19, 2008 I can't believe I lived in Canada for 6 years and forgot about Canadian Tire! Yes, if they have the parts, that would probably be the cheapest place.
layback209 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Posted February 19, 2008 Well i'm grabben my rubber band wad off candian tire money and heading over there right now.
layback209 Posted February 19, 2008 Author Posted February 19, 2008 Doe forgot today was a holiday. Guess i'll try there tomorrow.
layback209 Posted February 21, 2008 Author Posted February 21, 2008 Well canadian tire let me down :(. Guess its on to NAPA. Hope their CCV stuff is cheeper than their weather proof wiring. Cost me 15$ for 10 pins and gromits sheesh. :roll:
layback209 Posted March 10, 2008 Author Posted March 10, 2008 Umm, so checked the local NAPA for the ccv parts. They had no idea what i was looking for, i gave them the part numbers pictures, explained that 10 years of 4.0l use this system. The senior guy said they used to carry a full valve cover upgrade for the renix engines, at least he new what a CCV system was with out looking in the computer :roll:. But other than that no luck. Any more ideas on other places to check? I'll try another NAPA in Calgary Alberta as a last resort.
chicofuentes0224 Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 What part numbers did you give NAPA? Here the part # are 715-1367 $20.90 715-1366 $20.90 715-1365 $8.29
chicofuentes0224 Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 OOps, I forgot, those sre replacement for my 1988 4.0. I don't know about an upgrade.

HOrnbrod Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Have you tried an online OEM Parts source like http://www.mopar-parts-dealer.com/parts.htm or http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com/ Shipping will be higher, but not $100+. :eek: :eek:
