Default No longer available parts

I recently bought a 1992 Cherokee Laredo and find that some vacuum harness pieces and CVV pieces are no longer available. The items I'm interested in are the twist in rear CVV elbow and hose and the vacuum line from the vacuum harness to the cruise control servo . Has anyone else had this problem and how did you handle it?

Try this for your CCV part, I found out that Autozone or Oreilly's has a lot of PCV system elbows, grommets Etc for other vehicle applications that just happen to also work on Jeeps. A plastic elbow the right size is a plastic elbow the right size, pretty sure it is the front one that needs to have the correct sized port incorporated


As for your CC Servo, I found that the right size rubber Vacuum hose will fit tightly over factory hardlines. if it needs a "T" at that connection then carefully cut back the hard line at all 3 connection points and add rubber hose with a "T" for the rubber hoses.

The big thing to remember is that vacuum lines are basically tubes that allow vacuum to travel through.


if your so hard core as to have stock everything then you'll probably have to either go through a costume manufacturer or the like.


Most folks I know with any vehicle that is older typically just use whatever vacuum lines they can find and improvise.

If you can't find a part get the part number and head to Vintage Parts and search. They probably have it.
