128005, Help with jeep TB Posted by MITSUracer123, Sep-30-09 07:25 AM
Ok i been threw all the jeep TB build stuff and search and came up with alot of threads about them but none had what i need to know... It may seem like a stupid question but i never saw it talked about anywhere... Ok so i have it almost all together and something seems wierd to me about the TPS. Am i just sapose to use the one from my 420a TB? And there is a snap ring that hold the shaft in place on the 420a TB but im guessing i dont need to use it and cant anyway due to it being too short...
I also wanted to see how many guys are running a jeep TB on their cars right now? And what you have to say about it.
Thanx

Ive built a few. Work pretty good after making some adjustments for the idle.
You do not need the snap ring.
And yes, use the 420A TPS.
Good luck!

Its not bad, just adjust the IAC tip and spring return.
You may need a return spring as well.

Excellent! Way back when (when I did my first Jeep TB) I used MetalJim's write up. Basically followed it to a T.
Good luck with it.

Ok well thats the one i think i been following. Only part im confused on now is using new bolts to put on the TB. Do i need to tap the intake mani?

Nope. If you just buy these bolts; M8x25 1.25 pitch Allen head bolts they will thread right in to your existing holes.

I got my bolts at a combo of lowes and home depot. They fit freakin perfect. As far as the throttle body goes, at least to me, it feels a lot more responsive and a bit more torque. For the price I paid for everything - $4.00 about two months ago, can't beat it. Liked it so much I'm modding another one right now for my rs-t. Good luck.

They definitely make a nice difference on the butt dyno. I need to finish mine so that I can throw it on the engine before I get the car running.
