EGR coolant hose.

[johnnywal]

The one hose I have not replaced yet is the EGR coolant one. I have looked for it on the RockAuto site but could not find it. Can it be purchased locally without being ripped off through Jeep? The other thing I was looking for on the RockAuto site was the plastic bypass tube next to the thermostat housing, but again could not find it! Maybe I am doing something wrong? I can find all the other things to do with the EGR cooler and the thermostat housing etc but not the 2 things I am after!
Any help out there please?

I bought the EGR coolant hose today from a local dealership, trade price is $49. Its a complex hose in that is short, 90 degree bend, and has 2 different sized ends, so no easy to replicate with a generic hose. Can possibly find it from another vehicle if you rummage through a heater/coolant hose bin at your local auto parts store.

Coolant bypass pipe you mention is $290 trade at the dealership. Pretty steep. Have seen them on eBay for cheaper. I had no choice but to get the dealer supplied one as mine started leaking yesterday and I'm planning a trip this weekend. Can tell you the updated version has orange o rings and is a very snug fit. I expect it will last for many years (at least that's what I'm telling myself to feel better after paying their price).

Heaps of by-pass units to choose from on Ebay, for around the $30 mark, but like everything purchased from Ebay, read sellers reviews.in regards to item being purchased, item might look similar, but thats where it ends.

I have bought from this ebay seller a few parts for different models over the years and they were always genuine parts that never gave any problem..

Rockauto had them listed as out of stock, its under cooling system top of the list.

I'm up for a new one as well and tossing up genuine vs eBay special - if both are going to go bad eventually, I'm tempted to just get the eBay one. Can replace 5 cheapies for the price of one genuine

or buy a genuine Mopar one on Ebay at half the price.... some of the Jeep parts I have bought on Ebay are actually from a Jeep dealership ....
