Anyone got one of these for sale?  Or should I just buy an after market one?

So far a guy has just the airbox, not the tube from the airbox to the TB.

Bummer, Here is a bad thing and maybe one of you can answer this.  Is there a part for this to mount too?  On my throttle body there are three holes but nothing to mount too.  just flat and three holes

there was a person here that did a cai for the tbi and just attached the tube to the plastic elbow where the normal corrugated tube would connect.  will try to find the post and provide the link...

Ok I got a air box to throttle body for the 02 and it won't work.

Here is what mine looks like, it has a weird  triangle shape and only fits on that way.  The 02 is round.

here is the bracket that had a hose attached that fits on my throttle body.  All the others I have seen do not look like this :(

it only goes on one way and its pointed the wrong way in my jeep - no room for airbox

Is that the side of the TB that faces up?

This is what mine looks like. The Tube just slips on top of the TB and you tighten the hose clamp thing.

Looks like a adapter would need to be made with a bit of a lip on it so the tube can slide on?

There is a rubber hose that slips on that bracket and is mounted to that TB.  I can't cover that triangle piece up because there is something with the air sensor or something along those lines there.  You can see it in the tiny picture.  I am not sure why mine looks so different.  When I look up 88 cherokee I get a TB that looks like yours so maybe mine is older or something.  I did see a few like mine in the junk yard today, though in same year range

Maybe someone who knows more about the older stuff can answer. I don't know if there was a few styles of TB's for the pre-MPFI.
Sorry.

I am thinking of taking the bracket to a metal shop and having them weld a pipe on there with the bend in it about 3 inches up to just get it to work for now and put together my own cold air intake.
