Jeep engine replacement
Just wondering if anyone knows off the top of their head. Can the 1989
Wrangler 4 cylinder 2.5 be swapped out for a 6 cylinder 4.2 without
major modifications? I'm hoping to use original transmission and
mounting points. Thanks,
Dan

Re: Jeep engine replacement
Hi Dan,
You definitely don't want the Peugeot transmission even it it fit,
which it doesn't. I'd keep my eyes open for a complete donor Jeep, one
like a salvaged wreck with a 4.0L with fuel injection and all the wire
harness and computer and swap the engine, trans, and transfer as a
whole. because there's many shaft differences between the four and six
cylinder that'll be a headache. A helpful specs page at:
