aFe Jeep EcoDiesel Pro DRY S Intake

Momentum HD intake for the specified Jeep EcoDiesel

aFe 50-70062D Momentum HD replaces the factory intake on the four-door 2020–2023 Wrangler JL/JLU and 2021–2023 Gladiator JT with the 3.0L turbocharged EcoDiesel V6. This version uses one Pro DRY S filter. Oil-free Pro DRY S, with three progressively finer synthetic layers. The dedicated media description explicitly says that oil is not required.

Key Features

• Oil-free Pro DRY S, with three progressively finer synthetic layers. The dedicated media description explicitly says that oil is not required.
• One 8-inch-tall, inverted-top radial-flow filter with a 4-inch round flange; the shared manual's three media options are separate kit versions, not three included filters.
• One-piece sealed XLPE housing with tire-tread design, inspection window and soft hood/inlet seal; the intake tube is also specified as XLPE.
• Silicone elbow with custom aluminum crankcase-vent insert. The insert's slash-cut face and locating notch must face and align exactly as the manual illustrates.
• Transfers the original MAF sensor and retains the temperature sensor in the original crankcase-vent hose; neither is a newly supplied sensor.

Fitment

Current exact product pages and the current shared manual specify Wrangler JL/JLU 2020–2023 and Gladiator JT 2021–2023 with the 3.0L EcoDiesel only. Wrangler rows require the actual four-door JLU diesel configuration, even where a retailer's 2023 trim name omits Unlimited. A matching trim name does not approve a two-door Wrangler, gasoline engine, 4xe, 392, different engine conversion or 2024-and-later model. Named rows below come from this exact part's retailer table; confirm engine, body, sensor and vent interfaces.

Verify 50-70062D against the actual engine, sensor and vent connections, mounting locations and applicable emissions requirements before ordering.

Specifications

What's Included

Retain the original MAF sensor, crankcase-vent hose with its temperature sensor, housing metal sleeve and rubber grommet, fender screw, and engine-cover screws. The procedure also tightens the filter clamp, which is not separately itemized as another new clamp in the BOM. The manual expressly notes that actual clamp appearance may differ from the photographs; identify the supplied current set rather than assuming every clamp is a T-bolt. The factory CCV hose is retained, not replaced by a generic new hose. Use the correct Pro DRY S cleaning procedure and do not oil the media. The product page's isolated pre-oiled wording conflicts with its dedicated oil-free three-layer specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

The actual 3.0L turbocharged EcoDiesel in four-door Wrangler JL/JLU 2020–2023 and Gladiator JT 2021–2023. Named trim rows are conditional on that engine and body; gasoline, hybrid, 392 and two-door Wrangler configurations are not approved.

Oil-free Pro DRY S, with three progressively finer synthetic layers. The dedicated media description explicitly says that oil is not required. Use the correct Pro DRY S cleaning procedure and do not oil the media. The product page's isolated pre-oiled wording conflicts with its dedicated oil-free three-layer specification.

Yes. The exact manufacturer page specifies cross-linked polyethylene for both. It also describes a sight window and soft hood seal; the manual identifies the supplied inlet seal as silicone.

Fully seat it with the slash-cut face toward the turbo inlet, and align the insert notch with the tab inside the coupling. The manufacturer warns that incorrect positioning can cause a check-engine light.

The original MAF sensor moves to the new tube in the same orientation with two supplied M4 screws. The factory CCV hose and its temperature sensor remain; separate only the tube-side pinch clamp and reconnect both electrical harnesses.

Fit the three top locking tabs and side clips, retain the housing mounts and screw, and check that the cover clears the MAF harness. The optional painted fender bolt can chip paint; the manual offers tucking that tab under the fender.

No. It is a bench comparison at 7 inches H2O: all three media show 395 CFM versus 320 stock. The available PG7 dyno is a different media version and is not borrowed as this version's power result.

No. The manufacturer page and current manual expressly state no current CARB exemption and no California purchase or use on California-DMV-registered vehicles. Recheck connections after 100–200 miles; no numeric clamp torque is given.

Installation Instructions

Verify aFe 50-70062D. Work only on a cool engine and keep original parts. Remove the two engine-cover screws, lift the cover over the oil filler and pull it forward. Disconnect the CCV hose at the engine, unplug the MAF and the temperature-sensor harness on the CCV hose, loosen the turbo-inlet clamp and unclip/twist out the old tube. Carefully separate only the intake-tube-side pinch clamp; do not loosen the second pinch clamp on the CCV-hose side. Retain and reconnect the CCV hose to the engine. Remove the original housing and transfer the MAF to the new tube in the same orientation with the two supplied M4 screws and T20 bit. Fit the elbow, clamps and new lower mounting grommet loosely. Fully seat the CCV insert with its slash-cut face pointing toward the turbo inlet, aligning its notch with the tab inside the coupling; incorrect assembly can cause a check-engine light. Transfer the housing sleeve and rubber grommet, attach the silicone inlet seal with three top locking tabs and the two side retaining clips, seat the housing in its mounts and reuse the fender screw. Use the remaining clip on the seal's fender side. The opposite painted bolt is optional and may chip paint; tucking the tab beneath the fender is the stated alternative. Lock the filter into its housing, install the tube/coupling and snap the tube grommet onto its post. Tighten the matched clamps without overtightening; seat the original CCV hose against the coupling with no face gap and secure its mini clamp. Reconnect both sensor harnesses and tighten the filter clamp. Reinstall the engine cover; if it touches the MAF harness, adjust the tube lower as the manual instructs. Recheck all screws, clamps and connectors after 100–200 miles. No numeric clamp torque is supplied.

Important Disclosures

The current manufacturer pages and full current manual expressly state that this kit is not CARB exempt and is unavailable for California purchase or use on a California-DMV-registered vehicle. A custom emissions-control vent insert does not itself establish an exemption. Match the actual factory EcoDiesel configuration and current hardware revision before installation. No cutting/modification is advertised for that stated configuration; this does not approve engine conversions or provide a waterproof snorkel. Published flow and dyno tests do not guarantee a power, mileage or fault-code outcome.
