Throttle Body....what vehicle?

Chris Edwards · Post by **Chris Edwards** » Wed Feb 02, 2005 9:02 am

Looking for the 4.0L throttle body upgrade for my 89 2.5L

Which make/model should I look for when robbing this part?

Thanks.

Just a guess, but the one on a 4.0L.!

Wrangler, Grand Cherokee, Cherokee, Comanche Truck with a 4.0L

Darst Junkyard in Peoria has several(10) of them. They aren't open on Saturday.

Well.....

Didn't know if it had to be any certain year or something.

And, I couldn't remember the junkyard in Peoria.

Might have to hit them Fri then.

Thanks

Ok, called Darst and they have some for 40$.

But.....they said they have a couple different ones. UHG!

What am I actually looking for please?

Can it only be certain years or will any 4.0L TBI work?

Thanks all.

Also, they have 1995+ 8.8 ford rears starting at 500$. How is this for a price?

$500 for a used axle??!! Tell him you'll give him $200 and he gets to remove it.

That's all I paid for my MJ 44....from Darst

I wouldn't pay $500 to put Ferd parts in my Jeep!

Hey Jon, how much was the t-case adapter and bellhousing to put in that T-18. Ha Ha

Transmission and adapter were from a Cherokee....thank you very much!

Its ok....got a Ford 9" for a good price.

How wide is the Ford 9" axle? What are you going to do about the difference in wheel bolt patterns? On the plus side, a mini-spool for a 9" is less than $30!

Jon, a lot of cars came with 9" axles. so he will probably not have a problem with bolt pattern size.

Yes I have 5 on 4.5 on my 9 inch. On the other hand though good luck keeping u joints in your driveshaft!

Matt Brown · Post by **Matt Brown** » Wed Feb 09, 2005 8:20 am

If it was a properly designed axle and the pinoin came in above centerline like almost all other rear axles you wouldn't have a problem blowing out u-joints.

Chris Edwards · Post by **Chris Edwards** » Wed Feb 09, 2005 4:23 pm

Its from a Bronco II

Its a narrow one as compared to the standard longer ones but yes, I do have to get different rims. I think.

TSEJEEPERS · Post by **TSEJEEPERS** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 8:19 am

I thought Bronco II had 5 4.5 patterns.

Post by **Fraser** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 9:39 am

they should have that bolt pattern, but I'm surprised they ever came with a 9-inch.

dbarr · Post by **dbarr** » Thu Feb 10, 2005 5:34 pm

And I thought Bronco II's had 7.5 rears. I might learn something here.

Did you see the bronco 2 that it came out of? If there is a tag # still(if your lucky) take it to Roland Rich Ford and ask Kevin the parts manager.He is a big collector of broncos.

Chris Edwards · Post by **Chris Edwards** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 4:53 pm

My bad...it was a full size Bronco.

It is the 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern.

I got some rims for it.
