Fel-Pro Cylinder Head Bolt Set for Jeep 1996-2006 ES 71102 — OEM-fit TTY Replacement, Complete Kit

Fel-Pro ES 71102 is a complete cylinder head bolt kit engineered to replace torque-to-yield bolts and restore correct clamping for compatible Jeep engines.

If you're rebuilding or repairing the cylinder head on compatible Jeep models, using new, application-specific head bolts is essential for consistent clamping and long-term sealing performance. The Fel-Pro ES 71102 set is manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment specifications and validated for fit, form and function so the hardware matches the vehicle's service requirements.

Which vehicles and engines does this bolt set fit?

The ES 71102 kit is intended for a range of late‑1990s to mid‑2000s Jeep applications. It covers Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, TJ and Wrangler model years where factory torque‑to‑yield (T‑T‑Y) fasteners were used and a full replacement bolt set is needed.

• Fits 1996–2001 Jeep Cherokee
• Fits 1996–2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee
• Fits 1997–2006 Jeep TJ and Wrangler
• Designed as direct-fit to OEM specifications for those model years

Why replace T-T-Y head bolts instead of reusing the originals?

Torque‑to‑yield bolts are designed to stretch to a precise clamping value during installation and cannot reliably return to original dimensions after removal. Reusing them risks uneven clamping, potential head gasket leaks, and compromised sealing.

• Prevents improper clamping caused by reused, stretched bolts
• Reduces the chance of head gasket failure after reassembly
• Provides predictable torque and clamping characteristics

How does Fel-Pro ensure fit and quality for this bolt set?

Fel-Pro validates this kit for fit, form and function against the vehicle applications it serves and produces the fasteners to meet or exceed OE specifications. The result is hardware that aligns with the engine's installation requirements and supports reliable sealing when used with the correct head gasket.

• Manufactured to match OEM dimensions and material standards
• Application-specific design to ensure correct engagement and torque
• Quality control and validation testing for consistent performance

What should I check before ordering to guarantee compatibility?

Confirm vehicle fitment by entering complete year, make, model, engine and trim details into the fitment tool before purchasing. Review any additional qualifier notes in the fitment information to ensure this set is correct for your engine variant.

• Use the vehicle fitment or "Confirmed Fit" tool where available
• Provide full vehicle details: year, make, model, engine and trim
• Check for special notes or qualifiers that affect fitment
