I think swapping a 4.0 is going to be way more work then I'm prepared to put into it. I guess I will take it to a mechanic to see if my motor is salvagable. If not I'll have to see about having it rebuilt or getting a rebuilt.

Oh and its pushing oil up into the air filter. Its soaked.

Ya I think I will put big tires on it so I'll leave the 4 speed. The thing stalls out every time I come to a stop. There is almost 300000 km on the truck so I'm not sure if its even worth salvaging. Any thoughts on turbos or superchargers for some extra go.

Switching to a 4.0 will require changing trans, drive shaft etc will it not?

After my first Comanche at 16 and having to get rid of it I've been keeping my eyes pealed for another. Yesterday I picked up an 89 2.5l 4 speed manual. I've never seen a Jeep frame as new looking as this. Unfortunately on my way home going probably a a bit to fast the truck quit 5 times and is hemroging oil out of the top of the motor(not a mechanic ha). The truck was not the zippy 4.0 I previously had. I was planning on swapping engines any way but I need more power. I'm thinking I should either have the engine rebuilt or buy a rebuilt and swap keeping the size the same and adding a turbo or supercharger for some extra zip. Any suggestions ???!!
