Question 1989 4.0L XJ Fuel line disconnect o-rings

Hi I'm getting this XJ back on the road as a mail jeep and am having trouble finding the o-rings for the fuel lines and the correct size disconnects. at the Zone they don't even have o-rings listed for the vehicle. They have a complete fuel rail with o-rings and such for 70-100 depending on who makes it. I know the solution is out there I'm just ready for the tune-up portion of this project to be over.

Thanks for any help in advance.

I took my orings into an industrial seal shop....they measured them and matched them up. Easy. Place was called Fluidseal. You should be able to find a similar shop.

^this

Or you could pick up one of their universal o-ring kits and start trying different ones in there till you find one that fits.

I replied to your comment on the other thread regarding the o-rings and lock clips. I found the correct size Viton (orange) o-rings in a variety pack sold under the "HELP!" name at Awful Zone and a 5-pack of the plastic fuel line locking clips (5/16ths) at the same place.
