    Hi Y'all. My Jeep WJ's oil pump broke, and I noticed it a few days later. The result was that there are metal pieces all inside the engine. So I need an engine swap.

    I'm replacing the engine (4.2/258) in my 1980 J10 with a rebuilt 4.2 from a 1987 wrangler.

    I have an '02 Grand Cherokee and I got an '04 engine from a junkyard, put it in the Jeep, but couldn't get it to start. After doing a little research, I found out that the engine changed from '02 to '04. So, I pulled a computer out of an '04 Jeep and swapped it, but it didn't make much of a...

I’ll try to keep this as brief and to the point as I can but I apologize for the overflow of information coming. Im...

I can throw that thing in there...
  13. TJ Wrangler Technical Forum
    I know I may get a lot of heat from this one, None the less, I have swapped a Ford 302 Drivetrain into my 97 Wrangler. The Ecu is basically a gauge mule at this point. However, the tach and speedo do not work. I found that in order for the ECU to send a tach signal it has to see the crank and...

    alright so let me start by saying that the odds of me doing this are insanely low and i only thought of this because i'm in love with smaller engines with turbo kits (and also big NA V8s but that's not important) and i want to drive a faster car as most guys in their early 20s do. so my idea...

    I'm swaping a VW TDI engine into my TJ and I'm wondering what others have done in general about possible check engine lights. I'd like to avoid simply taking the bulb out if it makes sense. I'm going to be sending the Jeep ECU a converted crank trigger signal for the tach. At the very least...

    I currently have a 4.0 engine that just crapped out on me. Rod knock and is looking like an engine rebuild. I don't want to sell the car because I finally finished the interior before competition safety requirements. I'm trying to do rallies, unconventional already I know. Due to class rules...

    Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and I have a couple of questions and I thought this would be the best place to go to. I have a 1981 CJ-7 which currently has AMC 304 carburated motor. I have constant issues with the motor and I find it very unreliable. I understand they must be driven...
