Note: Vacuum lines can be replaced easily and vacuum looms can purchased at Jeep dealers. A lot of us have changed over to the Posi-Lok cable with very good results. Thus eliminating future vacuum problems.



To see pics of the Posi-lok, use the Binford Jeepers link below. [img]modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [addsig]

if your going to use your jeep for offroading i would go with the posi-lock cable, it will cost more than the vacuum hoses but it is well worth it, because one day when you need your four wheel drive really bad, and those vacuum hoses might not be there for you. - i know from experience [img]modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [addsig]

If your selling the Jeep and you have the time, talent and your doing it yourself. It's probably cheaper to go with the factory loom, although it might be a lot more of a headache.

The Posi-Lok is pretty straight forward installation. [img]modules/phpBB_14/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] [addsig]
