I have been looking for someone that sold just the elbow from the throttle body to the intake tube.

I want to run the filter to the otherside of the engine

I purchased it like that. Is a air force one cold air intake that is no longer made. As for the elbow itself you can just buy them on Ebay.

thanks man.

I have looked, but most look like flimsy silicone units that look like they may deflect under vacuum from the engine.

yours looks pretty sturdy (thick rubber)

Thanks though

My 2door was just killed last night as some dumb *** pulled out in front of me causing me to flip and roll into a pole.

Roger Jr. was only 4.5" lifted with 31's. He was not extremely beefy and tall nor fast and smooth. But He had lockers which gave him strength to cary on; through mud, over rocks and up a hill of snow on which every jeep but him and two others faultered.
Roger Jr was my friend. He let me drive any where my heart desired and showed me that even a 2door Xj has heart.
Roger Jr. you will be missed.


Ps. I'm ok bruised up and broken hand. Name:  uploadfromtaptalk1376604893115.jpg

Try looking around at home depot. You'd be amazed at stuff that can be adapted to cars

Default 2 door Cherokee here!

I have one too, it's a 92...anyone familiar with this year and any chronic problems?
I have a 6" lift in the rear and 4" in the front, soon to be upgraded to 6" when I fix what is causing her to constantly die, and get new longer control arms and 35s. We are riding on tiny little 31s.

Also, has anyone replaced their rear windows with the ones that slide open? I would eventually love to do that!
