Vintage Air 755696 GEN 5 SureFit Evaporator Kit for 76-86 Jeep CJ5, CJ7 & CJ8

Take your classic Jeep's comfort to the next level with the Vintage Air Gen5 SureFit Evaporator Kit 1976-1986 Jeep CJ5/CJ7/CJ8 — a purpose-built, vehicle-specific climate control solution designed to deliver maximum cooling performance right where it belongs, inside the cab of your CJ.

Unlike generic aftermarket systems, this fifth-generation SureFit kit is engineered specifically for 1976 to 1986 Jeep CJ5, CJ7, and CJ8 models, ensuring a precise, factory-quality fit without the hassle of custom fabrication. The system features a fully electronic, microprocessor-controlled architecture that eliminates outdated cables and vacuum connections, offering a cleaner, more reliable setup that withstands years of off-road abuse.

At the heart of the kit is a pair of separate, high-density aluminum A/C and heater coils paired with a blend air door, allowing for near-instant vent temperature adjustment. The OEM block-type expansion valve further ensures consistent, efficient refrigerant flow, while the injection-molded case delivers unmatched precision, durability, and structural integrity. Injection-molded blend air doors with integral rubber seals guarantee airtight performance, and removable access covers make future coil service straightforward and hassle-free.

Vibration and noise have been addressed at the design level with rubber well-nut mounting points that isolate NVH for a noticeably quieter ride. The powder-coated steel mounting brackets provide corrosion resistance, and the quiet high-performance blower moves air efficiently without unwanted noise. Advanced diagnostics and systematic fail-safes are built in to protect the system and simplify troubleshooting.

The kit includes the evaporator unit, mounting brackets, louvers where required, duct hose, wiring harness, new rotary control panel, hardware, and full installation instructions — everything needed to bring modern climate control to your classic CJ. Whether you are a weekend trail runner or a dedicated CJ enthusiast, this Vintage Air system is the definitive upgrade for comfort on and off the road.
