I’m not what you call a skilled mechanic… I can change my oil and I did my K&N intake install, but that would be the limit to my experience. Would you say I’d be better off taking it in somewhere to have it done?   _____________________________ gandalfdagrey "Beer is proof that god loves us" - Ben Franklin (in reply to DakotaStone) Post #: 6

Status: offline hell no. simple. remove the k/n. this will give you the full acces to the three screws that hold it to the intake manifold. remove the wiring harness from both sensors and unscrew tb. take of the sensors from the factory tb and install them on the new tb. screw new tb onto intake manifold and reconnect the wiring harness. a matter of 30 min. thats it. if you look at the pic. it shows you the two sensors. it is easy _____________________________ thats right, i did it so what, cry two tears in a bucket, @#$% it, lets take it to the stage 13.7 / 101.3 in the 1/4 mile (in reply to gandalfdagrey) Post #: 7

RE: throttle body - 6/12/2007 8:08:52 PM    pro4x4 Posts: 393 Joined: 4/13/2007 Status: offline I'm a tad confused. According to the fastmans site we have 68mm throttle bodies. I know he said its not a true 68mm its 3mm smaller actually according to him. Is this true? Has anyone measured the throttle body on the 4.7L? _____________________________ pro4x405dak www.cardomain.com/ride/2576627 www.metalheadguitarworks.com (in reply to superdak05) Post #: 14

Status: offline we do have the 68 mm but it is coned. if you were to look at a ice cream cone it is bigger at one end then the other. thats the way are tb are. what dan does is makes the tb the same size from frt to back. look at a coke bottle as the same way. bigger at the botom then the top. now look at a coke can. it is the same size top to botom. he removes that restriction . to make it the same size. you will notice the difference once it is removed.and you have them side by side. _____________________________ thats right, i did it so what, cry two tears in a bucket, @#$% it, lets take it to the stage 13.7 / 101.3 in the 1/4 mile (in reply to pro4x4) Post #: 15
