I think the factory locktight kept it from extracting, I was told to drill it out and retap it but I think I will wait till i get to a friends shop on the other side of town and use his mill to do that.

is there a little stub sticking out enough to clamp on a vise grip on? That's what I do

When I encounter a broken TB screw that's flush with the surface, I tack on a weld on top of the bolt and build up enough so I can clamp on the vise grips.

Drilling the hardened bolt out is a last resort

I know you've answer this before but are you doing Renix yet, now the twist, and if not why?

Thexjfiles

Im not doing renix TBs because I have a 3 jaw chuck in my lathe, and since they don't have a nice round mouth like a 91+, I cant chuck it up.

For renix I was looking on this website.

I'd like one (60mm) for a 99xj. I'll send you a pm also.

Thexjfiles

Ive got 10, 60mm bored out TBs ready to go.
91-95, 96-04, and an 05-06 too.

I have an early model 1996, but built in late 1995, so on occasion the 1996 FSM is totally off. How do I tell the difference between a 1995 TB and a 1996?

Also, do you install a new spring?

I would be interested in a 60mm.

Thanks.

Thexjfiles

91 to 95 has the MAP on the firewall. 96+ has the MAP attached to the driver's side of the TB. I never seen one that needed a new spring. I only use the shaft if its in very nice condition.
PM sent.

OldTires

Thanks for clearing that up, XJfiles.

PS Do you have a Scully or a Mulder working with you?

Thexjfiles

HA, yeah, X Files was always one of my favorite shows...Like me some Skully too

Thexjfiles

Still have plenty....
