Long skinny rubber flap, I think it goes in the grille somewhere? Pic

Anyone know where this goes? I took the grille apart but I can't figure out how to put this piece back in. Might not even be for the grille, not really sure.

That piece is called the air seal and is installed below the radiator with push pins. Head over to the resource section and download the manual for your Jeep and look up "condenser removal and installation", there is a diagram with the seal.
 
Thanks for sharing the proper name and part number.

I did wonder if they were still available but the few mopar part sites I checked showed it as being discontinued.

Luckily (or maybe not) you can get the Mopar P/N 55036369AB from GMPartsStore where they claim you will find ONLY NEW GENUINE GM PARTS at discount prices.

I just finished ordering the part from https://www.detroitmuscletechnologi...-radiator-condenser-seal-splash-shield-clips/
DMT came highly recommended. Apparently, if you have a rubber part they don’t make, the may make you one with the dimensions of your used part so that they can start manufacturing more for sale.
I will try to remember to post about fit and quality after I install it.
