Construction & Design

The intake end seals utilize AFM material, a chemically blown nitrile synthetic rubber that is bonded to a sturdy aluminum core. This combination provides an ideal balance between flexibility and structural integrity, allowing the seals to conform tightly to the intake manifold surfaces while resisting deformation under pressure.

The aluminum core ensures consistent sealing pressure and durability in high-temperature engine environments. Precision-cut to a thickness of .188 inches, these seals guarantee a perfect fit for Chrysler Magnum V8 engines, maintaining excellent resistance to heat, oil, and chemical exposure for dependable performance in demanding automotive applications.

Installation & Fitment

This intake end seals kit is designed for straightforward, no-modification installation. It fits a broad range of Dodge and Jeep vehicles equipped with Chrysler Magnum V8 engines, including:

• Jeep Grand Cherokee (1993–1998) 5.2L & 5.9L V8
• Dodge Ram 1500 (1994–2003) 5.2L V8 & 5.9L Diesel

The seals install on both the front and rear intake manifold crossover sections, providing a comprehensive sealing solution.
