      Description

      Keep Your Jeep Cool and Protected Under Pressure. The 160-Degree Fail-Safe Thermostat is designed to open at a lower temperature than stock, offering enhanced cooling for high-performance or heavily loaded Jeep applications. With a built-in fail-safe feature, it protects your engine by locking into the open position in the event of overheating—helping prevent costly damage in extreme conditions.

      Durable, Intelligent Cooling Management. Engineered with precision thermal control, this thermostat maintains consistent operating temps while promoting faster coolant flow when needed. It’s built with corrosion-resistant materials for long service life, making it a smart upgrade over standard thermostats in harsh driving environments.

      Installation. This product installs into the thermostat housing using standard gaskets and bolts. Coolant system should be drained prior to replacement.

      Application. This Fail-Safe Thermostat; 160-Degree fits 1987–2006 Jeep Wrangler YJ and TJ models.
