I have Rampage, not Rugged Ridge. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EBMLIY/ref=wms_ohs_product They fit fine on my 2001 Wrangler Sport. This is the Rugged Ridge...

I got mine from Amazon. I think they are Rugged Ridge.

What is wrong with the Skyjackers? I have them and they seem fine.

Have you tried the parts stores? If you have a hose shop in town, you could have one made. An a/c shop may have one.

I think if I was in your situation, I think I would sell the Jeep with the 2.5 engine and take the money I would use to beef it up, add it to what I got for the small engine Jeep, and purchase a newer used Jeep (cash, no payments) that came with a 4.0 from the factory. I think it will lead to...
