Description
Eliminate the Weakest Link in Your Wrangler’s Cooling System. If you own a 2012-2018 3.6L Jeep Wrangler JK, it isn’t a matter of if your factory thermostat housing will fail, but when. The original factory unit is made of a lightweight plastic composite that constantly cycles through extreme heat and pressure. Over time, this stress causes the plastic to degrade, resulting in hair-line fractures that frequently split along the molded center seams. This design flaw leads to sudden coolant leaks, engine overheating, and potentially catastrophic engine damage.
Upgrade. OPR solves this notorious factory flaw once and for all with their OE-Style Aluminum Thermostat Housing Assembly. Engineered as a direct-fit replacement, this upgraded housing ditches the fragile plastic construction in favor of heavy-duty cast aluminum. It retains the exact physical dimensions and routing of the original equipment (OE) parts, but delivers the rugged durability required to handle high-pressure cooling cycles without warping, cracking, or splitting.
Application. This OPR Low-Temperature Thermostat; 180-Degree os designed to fit 2012-2018 3.6L Jeep Wrangler JK models.
