You can find used 4.0L TB's from $50-80.  I think $40 is a deal.

You can get a bored out 60mm i believe for 110, after the $125 core charge of your old throttle body at http://www.jeepersandcreepers.com/client/Products.php?prokey=263 which isn't that bad...

The old kind without the map sensor on it is usually at least ten dollars cheaper on ebay, the newer ones almost always go above forty. That's just on ebay though, i called a salvage yard near me and they wanted 80 for it.  I'm still waiting for a deal

I paid 40 for mine and I pulled it myself. Not a bad deal. I'd say you're doing well.

I paid $36 + $8 s/h on ebay for one off a 2000 with the sensors. So $40 net is good.

I have been reading about spacers all night on a few different sights and I would say about 95% say they will do nothing for HP or mileage. So I think I will just put my $ to wards a electric fan.
