It’s really coming together! Good job man

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

Thank you! Appreciate it!

I have tuned tons of these swaps . It's super cool for sure.

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

Awesome! Where are you located?

[@Marktwain0241]

i have been looking everywhere for that fitting that attaches to the power steering pump. where were you able to find one?

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

Yes the high pressure side on the gear box is 18x1.5 and the return side is 16x1.5. The threads on the Mopar pump that I posted in the Hemi walk around video is 20x1.5 thread pitch. The parts are found at your local hydraulic shop. For myself, it was Al’s Hose and All. I’m in Canada.

@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo sorry I didn't clarify I was referring to the fitting on the pump side of the reservoir. It's one of the last pieces I need to start putting the front back together. It kinda looks like an ac fitting.

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

The fitting I used for the reservoir came off an AC pump. That can also be found at a hydraulic shop. As far as the OEM part number, I’m not sure.

@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo awesome I know where to start looking. Thanks for all the info!

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

@@Marktwain0241 the fitting I used for the reservoir was originally cut off a high pressure ac line at a salvage yard. To convert an ac pump to an onboard air compressor for my 3.8l.

How did you get the fan to clear the water pump pully?

[@JKB_OFFROAD_olllllllo]

I notched the 4 holes on top of the grille support about 3/8-1/2” to tilt the grille forward. Then tighten them back down. I forgot to add that in the video.

[@shaunforgacs6296]

I figured with WK water pump and accessories there wouldn't be any clearance issues. I have the same motor, 2020 Durango, I scored the transmission from the same vehicle. thanks for your videos. particular the part numbers. great asset.

@@shaunforgacs6296 when doing the aftermarket v8 swap radiator and Camaro fan there are no clearance issues. That can’t be said with the stock fan assembly and radiator. I was expecting this to be the case, using the stock setup. All Jeeps vary slightly in the engine compartment. Some will have minor clearance issues, some will not.
