    The two coolant hoses to do the heat delete aren't that expensive from the dealer. I actually have an extra of one of the two hoses as the dealer accidently ordered two of the same part number at first.

    I honestly wouldn't. Just get the hoses. I'll get you the part numbers for you tomorrow after work

    Thanks !
    Was the heating hoses easy to replace ? I guess I dont have to refill AC or other stuff if just the two heating hoses are "deleted" ?

    The heating hoses are really easy. 10-15 min job if that's all your doing. Then refill coolant for what you lost during the sway and get air pockets out of the system

    Thanks, looking forward to ordering them.
    Is it just a "blind" U-turn hose for the front and one for the back of the car ?

    Did you find the part #'s ?

    Im also looking at some winter tires that a jk guy is selling. The rims are DOTZ Hammada Dark 17x8 et35 and tire is 265/70r17 Cooper Discoverer. Do you think this would work on the commander or would it touch the caliper ? Would they sit far out ?
