K&N 57-1518 Performance Air Intake System for 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee L6-4.0L
The K&N 57-1518 Performance Air Intake System replaces the factory air filter and intake tube on 1997-2001 Jeep Cherokee models with the 4.0L engine. This kit uses a roto-molded HDPE tube to deliver more airflow for added horsepower and torque plus a washable high-flow oiled cotton filter. A custom heat shield keeps hot engine bay air away from the intake for better performance.
