Got new gears today, the shop painted the diff covers, is that normal or did this shop to a little extra?
I'm not 100% sure about application years but there is a listing for a single center spray nozzle for TJs on Amazon
This hood probably didn't come with the Jeep since it's missing sprayer holes and the paint has faded up some over the years (was a perfect match when I got it). Unless no washer res was an option and this guy really wanted one. lol Is it worth drilling holes and moving them so I can put bumpers in and still have sprayers? Or just leave this goofy set up. haha. This doesn't really amount to a hill of beans in the grand scheme, but it's driving me crazy now that I've noticed. Sprayers are one of those things you don't really need...until you really need them, so I'd hate to just delete them. Functionality isn't great from that far back, but they still mostly get it done.

Who knows the possible reasons the PO took the rubber hood bumpers out and put nozzles in place of them. 1 reason could be the center clogged and it was easier to replace the bumpers with nozzles?? Another maybe they just wanted to get more coverage?? Any way you look at it it's your Jeep do with it as you will. Make it unique!!It's already in my hood. I just had no idea since I've got the split tubing. I think the empty clips you can see in the very back are supposed to hold a single tube and go to that single one and they've split it to reach the hood bumper holes. What the heck. Thanks for pointing that out.
Sorry to hijack the thread guys — didn't seem like a big enough deal for a thread.
That centered square hole is where the stock sprayer mounts.

Pack them with dielectric grease and they will probably be fine for may years to come.This time yesterday I had completed my fog lite switch install, but the lites themselves didn't work. Now they do. It turned into a minor flail because my volt meter had a flakey negative test lead that eventually expired, so I was getting test results that didn't make any sense. Once I figured that out and cut that SOB in two before it landed in the trash can, the meter worked better and I was able to figure out what was wrong - exactly what I originally thought. 14 years of flapping in the breeze had oxidized the pins on the OEM wiring harness - once I filed that off, the lites work fine. I may need to eventually replace those connectors as I had to file down to bare copper, but we'll see. I'll try to get them aligned tonite.
Green thing in the middle is a camera lens artifact.
That is odd, looks like a center dual was on there originally, here’s mine in the stock location closer to the back of the hood. It might be an SE thing.

Did you start the process by pumping down the system? My A/C doesn't work and that will be my fall project. Usually, I'm present when the AC fails so I can determine if it's the compressor or a leak or what. But here, I'm starting from zero. What I'm afraid of is pumping down the system and the compressor kicks on without refrigerant / lube.

Maybe I should have smudged it with burning sage...Nah, it's definitely the demon you exorcised from your electrical system.
Another maybe they just wanted to get more coverage?
Gee, I should have just gone with that paragraph in the beginning, LOL.
The shop manual says the system (for my '01) holds 6.1 ounces of oil. If you replace the compressor, you are supposed to drain the old compressor and measure the amount of oil. Then, put that same amount of new oil in the new compressor. You can get compressors with oil in them, but you need to drain that oil out and measure the amount and only put back in the amount you drained from the old one. If you are replacing the accumulator, then you put 3 oz in the new accumulator. Something like .75 for..let me look it up......75 oz if replacing the condenser and 1.5 if replacing the evaporator. The manual also states, that if a leak occurs, to add 1 oz more to the system after the repairs are made.
Ordered these grab handles, because I'm tired of the doing the Steering Wheel Grab Butt Drag™ move when getting in. I'm tall, but a 2 inch lift and side steps that are useless as steps takes its toll on the seat edge. Anyone have them, like them, dislike them?
I don't have to look this info up now, thank you! I have a 2001 as well.
