Re: Coverting YJ fro MAnual to Automatic
To be fair, you didn't say that earlier.
Swapping out the manual for an automatic takes a large amount of fab skills.
If you have the skills then you can make it work, if you haven't the skills,
it is cheaper to sell and buy what you want. Of course, if you have already
done large scale modifications already, then you have to decide if you want
to keep what you have, or get to work.

Re: Coverting YJ fro MAnual to Automatic
Well, it's only a thought, but swapping in a factory automatic in exchange
for a factory manual doesn't seem to require a lot of fabrication, just a
major scrounge for parts and the hassle of the basically bolt-on conversion.
For me it may be just as easy to do the LT1/700r swap I've been
contemplating for years!
