Installing a DNA Motoring cold air intake kit on my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ, with the 4.7 liter engine.
The kit seems to be a direct knock-off of a K&N kit for this model and engine.
No instructions were provided with the kit, so hopefully, this helps someone else.

I am not a professional or certified mechanic. No instructions were provided with said kit. I do not know the proper installation procedure, as the manufacturer intended. This is simply to help those with said kit by pointing out what I've personally done to help make installation easier.

That extra bracket that you thought is for the evap Is a middle support bracket it goes right above the alternator and you will need to remove the bolt that is existing it holds the intake stable so it does not rub on the heat shield

How ur gas mileage? I just put bk mine on my 01 jeep grand Cherokee wj 4.0. Had some trouble shifting for almost 7yrs lol. Until solve it last Friday, the return spring near the valve body seem loose n stretch, so play around wit it spray some wd40 on it n I went on the rd n it shift like a new transmission lol. Before it shifted at 2000rpm but when needle to downshift the engine revv a lil. The amount of time I try to adjust the tv cable,when it only the return spring wanted to adjust.

Gas mileage is fair, I have other mods, and get on it quite often but I'd say I average about 16MPG on my daily drive.

Currently purchased an 04 limited WJ and looking into this as a replacement for spending an arm and a leg for k&Ns intake at $350....was it worth it to save a few dollars and get this intake?

It's pretty decent, I really haven't had a problem with it, besides it's metal instead of plastic. No instructions, but it's decent, came with hardware, and other components. I'd probably get a more decent filter, and make sure of the pcv valve. other than that pretty good!

Also that lifter tick is not typical 4.7 stuff that is a warning sign before something happens further down the valve train you will want to get that replaced ASAP and all 8 especially if one is already failed. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gJZ3ZqZynK3DdmQ.html

Thanks for the location as to where the mount goes! All seems well with it so far. As for the lifters, I know the tick isn't good, it's a super common failure on 4.7s. These are actually replacement lifters, and they've ticked ever since we installed them. Yes they were prepped properly before installation. It goes away after a few minutes, then not a sound. Thanks for watching!
