    Auto stores were recommending I get it from the stealership, so I ended up getting one from a junkyard.

    95 ZJ, it gone.
    07 Cummins Fire Truck, it tow.
    76 J-10, 'Heep' Jeep.
    06 Boobicon, it wheel.

    Your local O'Reilly auto parts should have it. We have it here on the west coast.

    Ummm... cant you just make one out of universal hose? i cant find a picture of it... so i dont know if it hase CRAZY bends... but they do have "flex" heater lines in most sizes to include the 5/8 that most of the heater lines are. or some straight line with the hard plastic elbows in it for hard bends?

    or is it the metal tube from the heater core to the firewall?

    96 ZJ swapped in 5.2, 242, 14bolt rear, big ugly home brew bumper, 7.5" of lift in the front 9" in the rear, long arms, hummer wheels with 37s... (dont worry front axle is next)

    It should be heavy. Weight is a sign of reliability. If it doesn't work, you can always hit him with it.
