Open the hood of the truck, and look at the top radiator hose. follow that hose to the engine. where the hose meets is called the thermostat housing cap. remove the hose, unbolt the two bolts, and gently pop the cap. your thermostat is right there, easy to change. about 30 minutes. just make sure you clean the cap and the housing for the thermostat real clean(down to shiny metal). new gasket and thermostat, and your in business. hope this helps

SOURCE: need location of thermostat ,over heating.

On the 2.2 engine it is located on the lower radiator hose water pump side.

Remove the two retaining bolts for on the housing
Separate the housing halves to access the thermostat
Pull the thermostat out to remove it from the housing
The thermostat has an O-ring which goes around the center
Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces of the thermostat housing

When adding coolant, it is important that you use GM Goodwrench DEX-COOL® (orange colored, silicate free) coolant meeting GM specifications. On these vehicles, if silicate coolant (green) is added to the system, premature engine, heater core or radiator corrosion may result. In addition, the engine coolant will require change sooner; at 30,000 miles or 24 months.

Good luck and hope this helps.

I need to know the location of the Thermostat on my 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee,

If you have a V8 the thermostat is located under the coolant inlet tube. The tube is located on top of the engine, in the front about center. The thermostat is hard to change. Locate the upper radiator hose on your radiator and follow it to the engine block it is located on the top front part of your engine and you must lean over the front and look down onto the block to see the thermostat housing.
