Cowl Seal
I’m looking for some info on the cowl seal for my 2001 XJ.
Does anyone know a write up on how to install/remove it? Also where to get one?
I’ve found a part number (55235178AB) but when I use it on different sites I see some that say it fits a 2001 but some say it matches a 84-92 only.
Any help is appreciated!

But not to worry. Persistence pays off.

A Mopar one for the same price that I paid for my aftermarket one 5 years ago.
Talk about luck. LOL.
You can thank me later. MLOL.

I ran into the same problem when I got it in my head that I wanted to replace mine. I ordered a aftermarket one that said it would fit but was a totally different set up. Refusing to give up I finally found one. A Rugged Ridge/Omix-ADA one. S-55235178. Paid $19 for it. Unfortunately the site I bought it from does not have it in stock. Same exact one can be had here but the price is double.

The previous owner had the hood resprayed and the guy that did it didn’t bother to mask off anything 🤦🏻*♂️. Much much appreciated!

<div style="text-align:left;"><br /><br />I was honestly afraid to pull mine off to find out how it attaches for fear of not being able to source one. Thank you for this!<br /><br />The previous owner had the hood resprayed and the guy that did it didn’t bother to mask off anything ����*♂️. Much much appreciated!</div>

Looks like it will come out without taking much if any paint. I’ve been working the old seal to be free from the paint on the cowl. Gonna try and replace it today hopefully. Thanks for the advice!
