Quick Throttle body question
« on: September 26, 2011, 10:40:17 AM »
i cant find any answer except what size my throttle body is. what i was trying to find out is if someone knows the size (diameter) of the intake  on a 4.0l motor throttle body? (making new snorkel system) Im not close to one to just measure it. thanks for any help.

Stock 4.0L throttle body measures 59mm (inner diameter) at the top, and 55mm at the bottom. (source: www.strokedjeep.com )
Not too sure on the outer diameter myself, but I plan on doing the same thing you're doing before Spring next year.

Aaron (waytec) on the forum has that spectre on his XJ. Im sure if you PMed him he could give you measurments.. Just ask him to reply with a real keyboard and not off his phone. It will make more sense.
I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...
