WTB: 4.0 throttle body

[kev711]

i have a 98' tj with a 2.5L and i'm looking to upgrade to a 4.0 TB......what ya got??

[customcreationsllc]

I have a 4.0L intake out of a 96 XJ no IAC valve

$20

[kev711]

this is probably a dumb question but what's an IAC valve?

hey! i think i went to your shop a couple years ago to have you install a 2in lift on my gf's blue libby then weld a new lower control arm bracket on my tj...lol

[customcreationsllc]

Idle Air Control valve
a little stepper motor connected to a valve which directs air around the throttle plate to adjust the idle.

They're common to go bad I already stole it off for another car.

The TPS is still on there. Throttle Position Sensor which tells the computer where the throttle plate is positioned.

Ya I remember that. Hows everything working?

hey! yea, my tj is goin great. added a couple things since you last seen it. my girl totaled her libby and junked it without taking off the moabs, 7in in dash dvd player, 10in sub, amp, or the lift!!!! and to top it off she bought a Honda Fit

i'll give you a call today, your TB has the right price tag, would you be able to give me a hand to do the swap?....oh..i was lookin around and what's the deal with this whistling people get when they do a swap???

[customcreationsllc]

I'm not sure what exactly what is involved with doing the swap.
I might be able to help with the swap.
I'm leaving tomorrow for the weekend, Rausch Creek Competition.
You can either pick it up tonight or next week.

Sorry to hear about your girls car.

[kev711]

see how many sensors are on your TB, some older ones only have 2 sensors, while newer 4.0L's use 3 sensors.

so would i still need to get a 4.0 TB? or can i bore out my 2.5?

[98xj_john]

im not to sure on the 2.5 tbs
i would have to see it you might be able to bore it out like the 4.0

i don't know if they were sensors but i seen 3 black pieces that plugged into it. are those the sensors you're talking about?
