I went with this one, that the seller says works in my Jeep through their widget, and VIN verification:

That is going in the next time I replace the hose, I have the 1996 factory original in there now.
Also ordered a new radiator cap, to replace the 1996 factory original as soon as it comes in.

What's a decent quality and not too high priced thermostat I could get for my engine that won't be failing anytime soon?
I think rockauto usually has the MOPAR items priced higher but shipping is cheaper. The exact opposite is true for we r mopar. Try both, see which ones cheaper.Originally Posted by bradleyheathhays
'96 XJ 4.0 here. Heading down the road at a consistent 60 mph yesterday in 55F deg weather and my engine temp gauge on the dash stayed b/t 165-175 only, so it appears my thermostat is stuck open. Not the first time I've seen it dip that low after fully warming up. I believe it was a common part out of O'Reilly's maybe.Nox Vidmate VLC
