Just rebuilt my 4.0 and the o-rings for the oil filter adaptor were in the Fel-Pro gasket set. Not sure if they're available seperately though. BTW - there are three o-rings needed to reseal the adaptor.

It's pretty easy. I don't remember having to take off the charcoal canister. Just remember to take the ratchet off the nut before you back the nut into the frame. Adds some unnecessary time to the job.

i mananged to find a local hardware store (not big-box home depot or lowes, etc.) with the appropriate sized o-rings for about .60 cents total for all 3 o-rings.
