I have a source to bore the throttle body on my Renix, but need to get a butterfly for the increase in diameter. I know with my 99 cherokee the throttle body is 60mm at the butterfly and necks down to 58mm. I have two questions on this. Can I use the butterfly from my spare new style throttle body when boring out the Renix one and if so, would I bore the renix to 60mm? Thanks in advance!

I've seen those, but I was hoping I could just swap butterflies and keep it simple.Originally Posted by XJwonders
I have read about people adapting newer throttle bodies to use with renix sensors
The shaft has a slot in middle of it. Theoretically if it's possible to swap butterflies. You would need to cut the slot bigger so the bigger butterfly need to go through.

$110 vs $25 I'm balling on a budget here. If I had $110 to spend I'd have injectors by now or maybe a new brake booster.

I'd do injectors or a brake booster before I did a bored throttle body.

I plan to, but I was asking the question since it was on my mind at the time. Whenever I get my tax return I'll grab a couple of parts.Originally Posted by cruiser54

You'll love the booster.
The 746 injectors from jhc7399 on here are great. Throttle body should wait.

Can I use my master with a newer Cherokee booster and not have to swap or change anything else or do I need a new master with the new booster? Most swaps I've seen get a new master too, but I didn't know if it was necessary or they were just replacing more parts.Originally Posted by cruiser54

You should try it and report back. Maybe we've been missing something all this time?Originally Posted by XJwonders
Use 95-96 booster or a WJ booster. For some reason I don't see 97-01 boosters being used
