Hello All,
I'm a new user and have an 89 YJ with the 4.2L that has 109,000 miles on it and it runs like pretty bad. I put a Weber carb on it and still does not run well when I’m at altitude hunting and gets bad gas mileage. I'm thinking of doing the swap out with a 4.0L I can get an 89 Cherokee cheap with the 4.0L fuel injected with the transmission and transfer case. My question is can I pull the motor, transmission and transfer case out of the Cherokee and put them in my YJ?
I will need to change the CPU, fuel lines, fuel pump and wiring harness also? Will this swap be easier then putting in a 92 or newer motor that has a little more horse power or is it the same?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
