anything with an H.O. motor...i believe 92 and up, from any 4.0 jeep. (i got mine from a 1996 zj (grand cherokee) but a wrangler would be fine too). you just swap your sensors over, which takes 5 min unless the bolts get stuck...like the one on the zj throttle body

**Arcticcat843** · 02-11-2007, 05:44 PM

I heard that there was a change in the number of sensors in the throttle body around 1996

So mine is the same as your, right?

ah yes..they moved the map sensor to the throttle body..very important to know..so yes go for 96+, sorry about that

ok...well i went to the three junk yards in town today. Only one of them had a 96+ and it was a 99 and they wanted 65 bucks for the tb if i pulled it. I thought that was kinda funny

So, now (even tho there high priced) im thinking about going and geting the whole 99+ intake

We will see what happends, i havent desided yet.
If everything goes to plan, this weekend im going to bore out my orginal TB, i guess ill just take the risk of messing it up.

fo sho get the who intake manifold and everything dude, i havent been able to find any 99's here. im getting an intake manifold this weekend baby!!

**Arcticcat843** · 02-14-2007, 04:54 PM

Yah, but... I didnt even ask how much he wanted for that, But quessing from the 65 dallor tb price, im saying its going to upwards of 250 bucks.

Anybody know what else i would need to take off beside the intake itself?

**alexrule123** · 02-14-2007, 05:50 PM

that should be it, it bolts right up.

**Arcticcat843** · 02-14-2007, 06:22 PM

do i need fuel rails, injectors, wireing, cables, or anything else, or will it all just switch right over that easy?
Oh and i know i need a new gasket, so everyone doesnt need to tell me.

Im thinking i may stop tomarow and ask how much he wants for the whole intake and w/e other parts you guys say i need.

**alexrule123** · 02-14-2007, 06:38 PM

well...i will know more on saturday since rasta_coty is getting an 03 intake manifold. i think the injectors use the same connector, but i may need to be corrected on that.

Wait a minute.

So you bored the TB, but didn't install a larger throtal plate? How the hell does your motor idle then? I can see the huge gab between the plate and the TB surface.

i only took out the tapper at the bottom...so it is 60mm all the way down. the diameter of the valve is 60mm, so the stock plate could be used

it makes a noticable improvement if you have done other modifications.
