Have just found out that the '07 Wranglers will have the 3.7L and not
the 4.0L inline 6... Can someone confirm this and if so, what are your
thoughts? Any Liberty owners think this is a better engine? I have an
01 XJ and think the 4.0L is great for my uses. I just can't imagine an
07 Rubicon with a 3.7L... is it really the truth?

 

I think it is getting a 3.8 v6 - not the 3.7 v6 in the Liberty.

3.8 L engine

http://www.jeep.com/07wrangler/featu...ifications.pdf

The HP difference is minimal along with the torque, the big difference is
the 4.0L develops it's torque at a much lower RPM there fore it is better
suited for off road and has been time tested. Only time will tell.
