They work better for throttle body injected engines. On the 4.0 ltrs the spacer does nothing but make the air travel farther. The idea of the spacer is to give the air and fuel more time to atomize (mix), however in this case the air and fuel meet in the cylinders not in the throttle body.

they are more or less seen as paper weights on these 4.0 jeep engines.
