FEL-PRO 35630 Engine Coolant Thermostat Housing Gasket for Jeep Grand Cherokee

Perfect fit . Great price and fast shipping. Great quality!

Works on my 2001 Jeep GC Laredo WJ inline 6 thermostat. Easy to install and it needs no gasket maker. It does not leak coolant. Makes next replacement 100 times easier.

Great product. Great price.

I had to do a coolant system refurb on my Jeep WJ 4.0. The main problem was a worn out fan clutch but it was leaking around the water pump too.I did the "while you're in there's" too so water pump, fan clutch, thermostat, thermostat housing, heater hose pipe and Fel-Pro upgraded gaskets with Honda-Bond RTV Silicone sealant and a new serpentine belt too.Everything worked great but to get the old fan clutch off I had to cut the nut part that screws on to the water pump shaft. I used a new Milwaukee M18 Orbital Super Sawzall, my reward for doing this DIY job.I didn't want to buy the Sawzall but after trying two parts store rental fan clutch removal tools with absolutely zero success, I got medieval on it. 15 minutes and two saw blades later the repair could proceed.The lower fan shroud fasteners are another pain in the ass for that job but after that, no big deal.After carefully cleaning all of the gasket surfaces and applying a reasonable amount of Hondabond, everything reassembled easily, I put the old hoses back in place refilled the system and burped it.Now my engine temperature stays right at 195 I think and beside warming up, the needle never budges.Before it would overheat if I wasn't traveling at 45mph+ and I had to add coolant almost every time I drove. That was mostly the fan clutch causing that but everything I used to fix it is working perfectly so far.

price and fit is great perfect seal

Doesn’t stick, you will need to put some thermostat housing gasket maker on both sides. Put on first side and make sure it sticks. Then fully cover the gasket side facing the engine block, allow 30 minutes to set up a little. Install as usual. 13ft lbs with a torque wrench if you’re using the 4.0l str8 6 on jeep cherokees. Beware when torquing, go slowly, one half turn on each bolt at a time until snug and clicks on wrench. Do not over tighten. If it leaks with the RTV you may have to move the thermostat since sometimes it wedges between the housing at the block. If this happens take off and start again.

Ive used this gasket on two separate Jeep XJ thermostat changes. Both of the times I just applied this gasket and put waterproof RTV on the bolt threads. No leakage either time. I highly recommend this gasket for Jeep 4.0 motors.

Exact fit for my xj
