Jackrabbit41 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 So I'm trying to find a 4.0 to build a 4.6 or 4.7 stroker out of and I'd like to stay renix. Do many people stroke renixs? I just don't really wanna deal with swapping to HO. Or should I? Also renixs were in 87-89 right? Thanks yall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftpiercecracker1 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Renix ran from 87-90. It seems that the general consensus is that the renix system more readily adapts to the increased demands of a stroker. Where as the HO OBDII can be more fussy. Strokers have been successfully built/ran on both platforms hundreds of times. I believe Don's (hornbrod) jeep has is an HO stroker. If I was in your place I would keep the renix system, but do all the bolt on upgrades HOs got. Horse shoe intake 7120 cylinder head 62mm Bored throttle body I'll stop now before I get ahead of myself. Even though I've read literal volumes of info on 4.0 strokers, I've yet to actually build one. BTW, if you don't already know about it, Jeepstrokers.com has the answer to every stroker question you could ever think of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancheKid86 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 i have a 93 HO stroker, with all the renix sensors swapped on not hard, I'm pretty sure that cruiser54 has a guide too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackrabbit41 Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 I'm texting this guy and he wants me to give him a price. All I know is it's a 89 renix, it ran when pulled and has everything on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88whitemanche Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Give him junkyard price...although he pulled it himself... Jys (upull) here with a core engine your looking at about $350-400... But it all depends on your budget as well...the lowest you can get it is best...id offer $150-200 and go from there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gogmorgo Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 The 4.0 currently in my MJ cost $300, but it came with an entire running and drivable XJ attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
