Default vacuum hose kits

Does anyone know where to buy a complete vacuum hose kit for a 2000 xj? Mine are all dry rotted and I'd like to replace all of them. Thanks for the help.

As far as I know, nobody makes a kit. You can't even get the OEM style hard plastic line, which is probably a good thing cause it sucks anyway. Just run down to the parts store and ask them to cut you off a certain length of vacuum hose that fits snug over the hardline.

Ok I’ll have to do that then, they make complete line kits for older 4.0s but not FI ones. Thanks for the reply.

Thinking most of your plastic lines are in decent shape. It is the rubber elbows that I am thinking you really want to replace. The help wall at most auto parts stores will probably have rubber elbows to attach to the plastic lines that will work. Some can be replaced by a piece of hose. For instance. You have a 2000. Federal or CA emissions? If CA emissions you have 3 elbows that come off the plastic lines that connect into the intake manifold. The front can be replaced with a piece of hose. The plastic line and the nipple on the intake are close enough to the same size. Middle one is not. Nipple on the intake and the plastic line are different sizes. Dorman 46022 will work. As far as broken plastic lines go a piece of hose spliced in should fix that. Never messed with any but those 2 so that is all I can comment on for sure.
