Default 1990 jeep cheorkee air box hose gasket issues

what going on everybody i been scouring the web for a gasket and cant find it for the life of me.

does anyone know the part number, or where to get the gasket for the air duct hose from the intake to the throttle body, this is the one with 3 holes. or if its possible to make one and what should i use
i appreciate any help i can get.

I'm over it, just finding a replacement boot was a nightmare and a 100 bucks later.

There's no separate part number for it. It would be part of the air duct. The part number for the duct is 5300 6196. #10 in the diagram.

If the duct is OK and you just need to seal it against the tb, you could cut up a large inner tube (like a wheel barrel tire tube). Perhaps a thin layer of silicone. Make sure the flange sits flat on the tb.

that's not a bad idea at all. its probably going to be a pain cutting the holes out but very doable. you don't think a gasket maker like rtv could do the job? how much pressure could that possibly be under.

No pressure, just vacuum and probably not much since it's before the throttle valve (butterfly). The only "risk" is sucking in unfiltered air.
