Vacuum Reserve Blimp Mountnig

Jerms · May 2, 2008

So i just installed my new winch bumper and winch. in trying to wrap up the install. Where do you guys suggest to remount the vacuum reserve blimp thing. Under the hood? Further up in the wheel well behind right headlight? Any other ideas?

My rig is the following in case you need it.

88' 4.0 AW4 Limted Trim Package with swapped in 231 tcase

TIA

Mine has been moved around the engine compartment several times. I think its current location is around the oil filter somewhere.

I zip tied mine to the finder support bracket under the passagerside park light and then ziptied the rubber splashmate around it.

Any problems with just removing it altogether?

i removed mine durring a bumper build and pluged the vaccume line. i have noticed no changes so i think ill leave it off. from what i understand, the "blimp" helps your vents operate under low RPM/ low vaccume conditions. is that right?

Mine has been missing for some time with a plug in its place, no ill side effects.
