Pretty much aren't any. Swap to the HO oil filter nipple with a 3/4-16" thread. Part number 53007563AB, it's very cheap. If you think a junkyard is somehow cheaper than $5 you can find one on any 4.0L made after 1990.

Yup. And you need a 13/16" socket to snag one at the junkyard.

I would say that is NOT clever especially now that we are in winter. Just because it fits doesn't mean it's a good idea. I would not recommend that for installation on any Jeep.
