I wish. That swap would be sooo much easier.

I got a screaming deal on a 4.0L / entire cherokee so I am throwing that in there.

Also if anyone knows about wiring this thing I am all ears cause I have no idea :confused2:

New cross member is fabbed up. Exhaust is tacked in place. New engine in place. Waiting on a flywheel, tarus fan and fuel pressure regulator.

Still need to install flywheel/clutch. Put Tranny and TC back in. Run the fuel stuff, set up cooling, wire the engine, flat skid, test engine / drivetrain placement and fix any problems.

Should be a piece of cake. :lol2: I have plans this weekend and can't work on it so I have 8 week day evenings to finish everything
