Fixing this vent line

[ARawls88]

First post here, just purchased this 03 sport last week. Only dash vents worked so I searched for fixes and came across a thread about this specific area. So as soon as I touched the T the line broke right at the firewall. So what are my options for fixing this? Thanks guys

Just to get you going a piece of small rubber tube as a coupling will do the trick but I suspect the vacuum line is brittle. They sell the same vacuum tube in small packaged coils in the Help section of most auto parts stores.

Thanks for your help. Looks like I’ll be after this piece

See how brittle that tubing is, you can buy a brand new Mopar vacuum harness for less than $20. Until they’re no longer available just replace the entire under hood harness. Part number is 55037637AB

Thank you @Daryl ! Ordered a couple.

I have one in stock. As cheap as they are it’s my opinion that every TJ owner that plans on keeping said TJ should buy one while they’re still available.

Ordered one. My AC switches to the floor vents only when going up hills. I was guessing a vacuum leak. So, I may as well give this a try.

While my tubing under the hood needed replaced, I found an unplugged vent line under the dash. Plugged it in and now my air blows out of more than the dash! Now on to why my compressor isn’t engaging.
