So I'm in the final steps of getting my engine back together after a tear down and gasket swap and I can't remember where these hook into. I've tried searching online but can't find anything that points me in the right direction

grey line with the 90 degree elbow goes to your heater control valve

the black line pictured near the throttle body should go to the vacuum canister located on the pass fender skirt

The black rubber boot with two hoses in it should be going through your fiewall to feed the dash I am pretty sure???
What year is this? that is a 4.0 ohv engine right?

Thumbs up on the first two, Jamie. The boot with two hoses doesn't look familiar to me, so I cannot confirm.  Encyclopedia 410 is most likely correct! LOL

yeah I usually don't pull the vacuum lines from the firewall but I do know there are two and they have a rubber boot of sorts, so I deduced that is the likely location for that double line rubber boot do-hickey

There should also be a sticker under the hood that shows the vacuum line routing map

Well that boot happen to come out when I was pulling the black box from the passenger side so I could replace the heater core as well and I didn't see where it came from exactly as it was just hanging there. Thanks for the help y'all. Now I gotta find the exact location for that boot one

I have a 2003 with 3.0L also.  I popped the hood on mine and I see nothing like the one in question.  I fear the boot is supposed to be inside the A/C housing and goes into the firewall there to feed vacuum to the HVAC controls.  I love ya, MdubG, but I'm not going to remove my A/C housing to verify that! LOL :)

Love ya too lol I wouldn't make you do that anyway. I'll just have to do some looking, see if I can see it's spot from inside the truck maybe and deal with it then.
