2 questions:

1. would I really get anything out of a cold air intake on my '89
2. K&N only makes back to 92 I think, where would I find one?

 

if you're planing on wheeling I dont suggest a CAI but you can always go with a snorkel or a good replacement filter on the stock air box, I suggest AmsOil dryflow filters,, PM whowey for that,, also in your stock airbox check on the top part on the tube that goes to the TB there is a piece of plastic that make the tube narrower inside, take that out and you get better flow.. hope that helps

 

I custom made one on my 89 and it really does make a difference it runs great.

 

jks it might help him if you posted a picture. And no one mentioned that in a dusty area K&N are not very good filters. They allow larger dust and dirt particles to enter your air intake. That is why Belto suggested the Amsoil filter, which is a freeflowing efficient filter. Probably the very best one in fact.

 

Do they offer a CAI? with this filter? or is it just a panel drop in?

 

I think only the drop in, but contact whowey he is the guy that sold it to me, he is an AmsOil saler..

 

They have both a cone and a rectangular drop in. Contact Whowey for specifics.
No complete kit is available you get the kit and replace the bad filter with a good one from Amsoil.

 

I sent him a PM but the info i found at amsoil.com list the Gas motor kits but doesnt say they type of vehicle they go on... maybe im missing something??

Jeep Jeep contact Whowey via PM. He will help you out to find if the part # that Belto gave you is correct for your particular year and model.

 

is there a tube on 96 cherokees as well?

 

not sure, my 95 had it check it out, maybe pre 97 have them bc I know 97 + does not have em..

here take a look https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f51/budget-airbox-mod-iat-relocation-2599/

 

I sent him a PM..belto sent me the # for the panel filter...i was looking for the number for the Injen/Amsoil Cold air intake, Im awaiting his resonse.

 

so do you hack the airbox AND install the amsoil unit, or do you have to have a basically stock airbox with the amsoil filter?

jkshavoc, love to see pix, got any?

 

There is no good CAI for the Rennys. I've searched high and low. Rusty's and Quadratech sell one that fits into your existing rubber tube, that's about as good as you're gonna get!! This is mine from Quadratech.
