Okay, this summer my ac compressor went bazook, fried. I went to a junk yard and picked up a used one, but once I put it in it had the wrong connection to the existing hoses. So I hooked it up without the hoses just so the engine could run, but no ac. Well, I have the funds again I'm getting a another one which I can hook up the hoses to. My question is are there differences in the ac compressors for the 97-01 models. The one I pulled out of my jeep was a 709D Model. Are there different numbers to worry about, or no. I found one on ebay, but can't really read the number very well and can't reach the seller. It looks exactly the same. Thanks for the help.

There were more than one compressor used on these Jeeps. You will need to make sure that you get the correct manufacturer and model.

Hmm... shouldn't a dealer be able to look up the VIN# and get that info?
