Default 89XJ intake manifold..

I have an 89 XJ and I have been trying to find a new intake manifold for it but I cant.
No one seems to have them and Im wondering if I can even buy a new one.
Does anyone know what other years of XJ's have intake manifolds that are interchangible with my year?

The intakes on 87-90 are the same, 91-95 are the same, 96-98 are the same, 99-01 are the same. The intake from any Jeep 4.0 87-01 will bolt up to your 89 and work. The 99+ intakes are known to flow the best and get you an extra 10-15 HP on an older 4.0. Just so you know. You really are throwing a lot of unnecessary money away trying to find a NEW intake for an 89 Jeep 4.0. Get one out of your local JY and clean it up. It will work as good as a new one and you won't get raped on the price.
