Where can I find a 2008 JKU lower intake manifold?

[Adtrawick]

So the fantastic mechanics at a shop that worked on my jeep when I was traveling and my radiator fan went out, cracked my lower intake manifold. It leaked a bit and I couldn't figure out from where until I went to replace the coolant temperate sensor. It has a decent little crack right along the front of the manifold. So I figured I'd just buy a new one, at which point I found out they don't sell them new anymore. I tried to find a good used one, the one that I did find looked terrible and won't ship to Hawaii. All that being said, anybody got a line on where to get a new one or a decent used one? I have checked all the auto parts stores in the area, the junk yards, every online parts store i could think of (rock auto, a1auto, summit, extreme terrain, 4 wheel parts etc.) I even tried ebay, which I wouldnt normally do, and have had no luck. I can find the ones for the vans all over the place but supposedly they won't work. Im at a loss. Any help is appreciated

Thanks Chris! That first website had a bunch of stuff. I did find one that wasn't great on ebay and bought it because it was literally the only one I could find only. I guess I just wasn't looking in the right places.

Yes it's number 1. The newer models have a plastic one and they are everywhere, but the 08s have the aluminum one and they're harder to find used and basically impossible new.
