thinking of going electric

[jeepman09]

I have been toying with the idea :idea: of making an electric MJ for some time now and have come across one question that i am sure someone here can help me with!

 

Is the Tranny (5 Speed) the same in a 2.5L I4 as in say a 4.0L, or will they both mount the same if i want to swap! reason for asking is i can find a mounting plate already machined for a 2.5L, but the MJ i have is 4.0L!

 

any help would be appreciated :cheers:

No, they are not the same. sorry. Sounds like a sweet idea though. :thumbsup:

[jeepman09]

that means that i'll have to find myself a 5 speed tranny from a 4 banger or use a AC Electric motor rather than a DC one! If i get this Project underway I'll post regular updates as to what and why i chose to do things that way!

 

thanks pete! :cheers:

:hmm: What type of virus protection are you using? I opened it before seeing your post and had no trouble with it...not even any pop-ups :dunno:

[HOrnbrod]

Me too.

[tazjeeper]

norton and someother thing. I had pop ups and all kinds of nasty stuff.

I was not on any other sites just turned on the laptop and pulled that open. and WHAM.

I have the file saved on here as the antivirus told me to. it could not repair it.

I just checked myself, and found nothing harmful embedded in the page or loaded externally.

 

Maybe your software mistook a random byte sequence in one of the pictures as a virus signature?

[jeepman09]

Dude i have been going to that site for a while now and never had trouble! If i was you i'd try updateing my antivirus as i have never had any luck with NORTON all it ever dose is take over the PC and gave me false readings about viruses!! any how good luck and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Well what are you running. Like I said I am no computer guy that is for sure. I just posted in red because it was f n up my laptop and did not want anyone elts to have a problem. maybe it was nothing.

[jeepman09]

Well i run TREND MICRO and it has never let me down and takes alot less memory to run than NORTON!!
