Way over priced. You can easily find them on ebay for less than $50. If you go with the V8 TB you would also need the V8 throttle cable or swap out your V6 throttle shaft. The V6 throttle shaft needs to be modified to accept the larger throttle plates.

Having your V6 TB modified is also an option and doesn't have to cost much more.

My Dakota is a 92; any certain year V8 throttle bodies I can or can't use, or are any of them off of a Magnum V8 basically the same? Thanks!

You can use any V8 tb up to a 95 Dakota I think...96+ won't work.

i got my tb from a junk yard for 40, i got a 93 throttle body (same year as my truck) and i didnt need to change the throttle cable. so pay attention, you may get lucky. and to tell you the truth i think you can actually use any throttle body off a 5.2 until they went to the 4.7...but i am not positive.
